GIRLS: ever rest your feet on the dashboard?

Question

if so, do you take off your shoes?

do you do it while driving?

Answer 1

no.  i've never done that.

Answer 2

I used to rest my feet on the dashboard as a passenger. Then I heard a story from a police officer friend of mine about a crash he went to. The woman passenger had her feet on the dash. When the car crashed into something, her feet went through the windshield and she partially slid out from under her seat belt. After the initial hit, the resulting recoil caused her lower legs to be flung back and upward through the glass. She broke her back, is a paraplegic now, and had to have her legs removed from the knees down.

I couldn't imagine what would happen in a crash if was DRIVING and my leg was on the dash! Yikes, I'd be torn in half I think.......

No, I drive with both feet on the floor, and always have.

Answer 3

Since you asked this is the safety category (which is not where it belongs), I would like to point out that if the airbag goes off, it will hit the back of your legs and will therefore not protect you correctly (and may break your legs as well).

Answer 4

always no shoes, not when driving, but when bf is!

Answer 5

Yes...truckers love that...especially if my legs are also showing...*wink*

Answer 6

this must be a kids game since most adults know better.
