Yes—you can drive barefoot in Australia, and no one’s going to impound your toes. There’s no law against bare feet; the rule is you must maintain proper control of the vehicle at all times. If your footwear (or lack of it) contributes to poor control or a crash, expect a chat with the nice people who carry ticket books. Ironically, slippery thongs or stilettos can be worse than bare feet for pedal feel. Sensible tip: wear flat, secure shoes for longer trips and keep the human hooves for the beach car park. Consider this permission granted—just don’t drive like your flip-flops are on fire.
