Driving barefoot in Australia is not illegal, so you can ditch the shoes if you fancy a bit of pedal freedom. However, it's not the brightest idea safety-wise. Bare feet might slip off pedals or struggle with grip, especially if you're caught in the rain or have sweaty feet, turning your driving experience into a bit of a hazard.
Authorities expect you to maintain full control of your vehicle, so if barefoot driving leads to unsafe control, you could be in trouble under general dangerous driving laws. To sum up: legal but daft and potentially risky. If you want to browse some sensible shoes for driving, you might peek at listings on Tradingpost or CarShowroom.
