Driving in sock feet

I agree its just like a house or an appartment why get youre carpet all dirty.

 

Nope, couldn't do it, not even a little bit. Granted, I own one pair of sneakers that are 5 years old and have worn them about 3 times. Boots with hard soles. Sandals? Do I look like an apostle?

 

I simply have to wear shoes when I drive, even in my car. I've tried it without shoes and it just feels *wrong*. Plus it makes my heel sore and my toe muscles hurt. Dunno why.

In the truck I always wore work boots of some sort while driving....something about the heavier shoe seemed to reduce any foot/ankle stiffness. I always took my shoes off before I went past the sleeper curtain; that was always the "barefoot" zone. And about once a week I'd sweep & disinfect the floor up front.

 

I look at it this way. If you have to jump out of the truck for some reason. How fast can you do it in your socks? I wear shoes in the drivers set. Thats my office. Shoes don't go past there. The sleeper is my house. Besides you are driving a 40 ton truck on the hi way. Not you car on the block. kick back and relax AFTER your day is done.

 

I always keep my shoes on while driving but,always take them off before going into the sleeper.

 

What, no flippie flops?

 

A few months back a weight station was checking drivers to see if they was wearing shoes and had their seat belts on. They was writing tickets for both.

 

I was just going to comment about certain DOT regs. That being said, dont ask/DONT TELL.

 

I hope to never get caught. lol
