Is it illegal to drive barefoot in Georgia?

I recently moved to Georgia and I love getting out and exploring but I’m used to driving without shoes. Is driving barefoot in Georgia legal?

Congratulations on your move! Driving barefoot in Georgia is not illegal, but it’s not encouraged either. Driving barefoot is technically legal in every state, but it can create
unsafe driving
circumstances in the following ways:
  • Your feet are more likely to slip off of the pedal
  • Your feet can tire more easily and may cramp up while driving
  • Your feet are at more risk if you’re in an accident, especially if you have to get around broken glass and metal shrapnel
Keeping a pair of designated driving shoes in your car is an easy way to encourage yourself to wear shoes while driving. They never have to leave the car, but you may want to invest in some air fresheners, too.
