Proper footwear for lifeguarding.

If you are ever at my pool, I can give you a couple minutes of drowning time to make fun of my sandals before I begin a rescue if you’d like :lol

Holy shit I need to get off the internet and go to sleep.

I’m wearing flip flops now! And to my undrstanding it is illegal to drive with them on. I usually take em off and throw em on the floor of the passenger seat. I prefer driving barefoot to anything else honestly.

i am not sure if its illegal to drive in flip flops, but i know from my days doing nothing all summer as a lifeguard that driving without any footwear is definetly illegal, even tho flip flops would clearly be more unsafe to me.

My coworker just informed me that somewhere there was an update that she was wearing a cast and was on prescription Xanax and hydrocodone at the same time… yea, she really should have been driving… lol.

And if you do a quick search, it appears that although driving in flip-flops or even barefoot is frowned upon, it is not technically illegal. Although, that is just going by a Google search and a lack of any law that I could find stating either was illegal…

But then the title would be a lie. He killed a few more than that I think.

Checking the data in the so-called “black box” for throttle position, brake, speed, etc. before and during the crash. Hopefully it’s enough to convict her…

The cast, xanax, and hydrocodone isn’t enough? The only thing wrong with toyotas is the types of people who tend to buy them.

It takes some force to depress a pedal. A flip flop weighs what? Two or three ounces tops? Even if you tried to jam the accelerator down with one, I doubt it has enough weight to overcome the return spring action of the pedal.

And any guy wearing flops when driving needs to have his man card revoked.

I’ve done plenty of spirited driving while wearing flip flops. No problems here.

That’s the update from just hours ago. She’s hired a team of lawyers to take her side as she is a dumb fuck. Some are saying she was on Oxy for a fuckin’ broken arm, either she’s the biggest pussy on earth or she’s a drug addict and has a moron for a doctor.

$10 says you won’t be in front of her house protesting.

But, if you do, $10 says the sign you make will contain at least 12 times more wording than everyone else’s.

Also, WTF did you say for your first sentence of 2nd paragraph?
