Hello Greg,
I think maybe less safe but not necessarily unsafe. I do drive in my waders occasionally. In my case at least, my wading boots are significantly bigger than my street shoes and I drive a vehicle which requires operating a clutch pedal as well as a brake and accelerator. I remember in 1964 when I went shopping for my first car after graduating from university, I looked at a Lotus Seven. There were a number of reasons why I did not buy it, one of which was that the footwell was so narrow that my two feet covered the three pedals. I could not operate the clutch without fouling the accelerator and vice-versa. My current car of course is not that bad. Best regards, Yuji Sakuma ================================================== ================ "Greg Pavlov" wrote in message ...

Correction: "I could not operate the clutch without fouling the
accelerator.." should have read "I could not operate the clutch without fouling the brake.." I also could not operate the accelerator without fouling the brake. Other things I remember about the Seven was that the seat was about 50% too narrow and the car did not have a heater.

I drive a truck with a stick in my waders all the time, but I have little feet. ( I know, I know little feet little.......) Willi |

So is that why you have that stick in your waders? Kevin, size 13 FWIW, I agree with Warren. It was a ****ed up thing to say, however you want to interpret it. Wolfgang |
