Flip-Flop Drivers
I had a teacher that always wore boots with high heels on them in the Winter. She drove a 5 spd. Jetta. After spending an entire class wondering how exactly one could shift in those, I asked.
She told me, "It's all in the toes."
Still makes me laugh for some reason.

I'm 6'4", with size 15 feet.
I test-drove a standard while wearing sandals. Gotta love Texas!
I'd like to wear a more dedicated "driving" shoe, but it's just too hot in Texas to wear shoes all summer long.

ha!
my mom macked a pole because her flip flop got stuck above the gas and below the brake so she couldnt press the brake or let off the gas (how that happened i have no idea). it was in a parking lot at about 10mph's in a beater civic she ended up selling for 1 dollar (literally) she was so pissed. I still laugh when I remeber that
Personally I dont drive with flip flop's or anything that doesnt have a backing. with all the movement down there i dont like the all the play that they create.
Never know when you need those evasive manuevers

I wear flip flops 95% of the time here in Miami and I once tried driving with them on and I stalled the first time cause they got stuck so I just take them off and I drive barefoot. I like it much better becasue you can actually fell the pedals and it is much easier to heel-toe
I love driving barefoot, however, how would anyone know if you're driving barefoot, let alone a cop? I must be missing the part where drivers are sticking their feet out the window...
Best thing to do as stated before is not to wear them. Now with that said I do wear them and yes I have the same problem. Best thing to do is take them off and drive barefoot.

I guess you've never been in the tropics or hot weather? if an entire country or island can drive with flip flops/sandals on.. then why can't you? don't have the skills for it?
