I know someone that discovered exactly why you don't want to drive barefoot. A thorn was stuck to the brake pedal...

Dumb Alabama Laws

Bear wrestling matches are prohibited.

You must have windshield wipers on your car.

You may not have an ice cream cone in your back pocket at any time.

In California if you turn them on then you have to turn on your headlights even in full sun.

That is true in Georgia as well. However, cars can be quite invisible in an interstate fog (water thrown up by car and truck tires) even in full sun if they do not have their headlights on.

Requiring functional windshield wipers is not that stupid a law. People without windshield wipers are a public menace in the rain.
