you were driving without your shoes on? My hubby said yes, it is wreckless driving, I laughed. Next, would you if you are 20 years old and drive your two drunk friends home, one 20 and the other 22? We had this discussion the other night, and I was told yes you would, sounds unreasonable to me, since the sober one is doing the right thing.

My mother always told me that I would be in trouble for driving with my shoes off. Never stopped me, I am usually barefoot in the summertime, but I have never gotten in trouble for it either.
When I was in high school we were told that if we were underage and there were people who have been drinking in our car, we could be considered "in possession" of alcohol because anything in our car is considered to be in our position. Personally, I think that a cop would have to have other reasons to go to that point.
Conclusion, I have no idea if these are ture, but I have been told the same.
PresidentJust a parent who happens to be a member of ACSC Board of Trustees. At all times I speak only for myself as an individual. I cannot, nor will I attempt to, speak for any other member of the board or administration. No member of the ACSC Board of Trustees has any authority as an individual, the authority rests in the Board as a whole only. Sometimes I forget myself and speak as a parent only, a parent who loves and protects and is very bias toward my children.The last one really bothers me, I have always told my son, nieces, nephews, and younger cousins that I would much rather get a phone call from them asking for a ride, than the hospital, one of their parents, or the police.
I always understood that if you had your shoes in the car you did not need to wear them. As for driving the two drunk people home. If either is in the front seat I am pretty sure you can get in some serious trouble, and maybe contributing to a minor (even though under 21, still over 18).
Smells like bubble gum to me it does!
Don't kick the dog! You will get bit.
So if I kick my shoes off and drive around without them, I will probably be ok.
If I have to pick anyone up that has been drinking, just put their drunk butts in the backseat. I have to think that if I were stopped and I could pass a sobriety check, explained what I was doing, the officer would have to assume that the sober adult is a lot better than the drunk teenager driving themselves home.
had a friend that went to Elwood and picked up 2 drunk buddies of his. They were stopped for a broken tail light right outside of Elwood going toward Alex. All 3 went to jail....never could figure that one out......
What?? You can't understand what I am saying? I am speaking plain penguin!!
It's against the law to drive barefoot in Mississippi. Which is strange since we do everything else barefoot!

That makes no sense. My nephew told my dad that he drove his friends home, both of the friends had been drinking that night, but my dad told him not to do that again because he could get in trouble for it.
That is sooo funny. Indiana has some strange laws on the books as well, including one about oral sex, don't remember all of it, just remember my oldest sister tallking about it when I was young.
dumb laws in Indiana
