Ask a lawyer:
Am I allowed to drive barefoot?
There is no specific law in Kenya that prohibits driving barefoot. However, it is important to consider safety and practicality when driving barefoot.
Driving barefoot can be dangerous as it can affect your ability to control the vehicle. For example, your foot may slip off the pedals, or you may not be able to feel the pedals properly. This can lead to accidents.
The Traffic Act, Chapter 403 of the Laws of Kenya, focuses on road safety and does not explicitly mention driving barefoot. However, the Act emphasizes the importance of safe driving practices, which includes maintaining control of the vehicle.

While driving barefoot is not illegal in Kenya, it is advisable to wear appropriate footwear while driving to ensure safety and control of the vehicle.
