Is it illegal to drive barefoot in Pennsylvania?

Every Tuesday night is sand volleyball night at the local bar. I always hate putting my shoes back on after the game is over. Can I drive barefoot in Pennsylvania?

Drew Waterstreet · Updated on Feb 28, 2022

Good news—you don’t have to put your shoes back on! It is not illegal to drive barefoot in

Pennsylvania

.

Just because it is not illegal to drive barefoot, we don’t necessarily recommend it. There are some associated risks. Here are the details:

Shoes typically provide better grip compared to bare feet. You don’t want your foot to slip off the pedals.

Removing your shoes while driving could obstruct the gas and brake pedals.

Driving barefoot could be considered negligence by your car insurance company. If you are in a car accident while driving barefoot, there is a possibility that your claim will be denied—regardless of direct causation.

While we’re on the topic of recommendations, we recommended giving

a try! If you’re looking for a new

company, Jerry can provide you with competitive quotes in under a minute. Swapping is just as effortless. Jerry takes care of all the paperwork and phone calls and can even assist you in canceling your old policy!
