Driving Barefoot?

Yep! I'm actually in the process (have been for the past year) of transitioning to a more barefoot lifestyle in general. I've swapped my supportive running shoes with corrective insoles to a zero drop heel (so the heel isn't above the balls of the feet because of the cushioning). Once I've gotten used to those, I plan on doing the transition to a 5mm sole and then to nothing at all.

I've always been barefoot in the house (except when it's super cold and I put on socks or, more recently, mocs) and have just ordered my first pair of work shoes with a 3mm sole (because my feet have changed so much in the past year that I don't fit in my old shoes anymore).

Oh wow and do you get any resistance from people about being barefoot?
