Timm Posted August 4, 2008 Author Report Posted August 4, 2008 http://tafkac.org/legal/driving.barefoot/driving_barefoot.html 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. M I C H I G A N D E P A R T M E N T O F S T A T E LANSING RICHARD H. AUSTIN * SECRETARY OF STATE MICHIGAN 48918 STATE SECONDARY COMPLEX June 3, 1994 Jason R. Heimbaugh R R 1 Box 120 Champaign, IL 61821 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 Communications Section Bureau of Driver & Vehicle Records JW/dld Phone (517) 322-1166 Safety Belts and Slower Speeds Save Lives Quote
