This guy apparently emailed all the states and the district of columbia asking for their stance on driving barefoot.  The Michigan response is rather stupid. I guess it depends on if the officer is in a good or bad mood at the time.  It was from 1994, but I doubt it's changed.

Dear Mr. Heimbaugh:

 

Your letter of May 27, 1994 requesting information on driving a vehicle barefoot has been referred to our department for a reply.

 

Michigan does not have a law prohibiting the driving of a motor vehicle without shoes. However, if a police officer feels that it is a careless driving practise, he may ticket you for careless driving.

 

If I can be of further assistance please feel free to contact me.

 

Sincerely,

 

Janet Wilcox, Analyst
