Is it legal to drive barefoot in Oklahoma? That's the question and the answer may surprise you.

Can you be ticked or given a traffic citation for driving barefoot in Oklahoma? Somehow this topic came up at the water cooler and the answer to that question may surprise you.

It's a question worth asking, well, at least if you're one of "those kind" of people. Here's the question: Is it illegal to "do it" in a vehicle in the state of Oklahoma? The answer might just surprise you. Or some of you anyway.

Several Oklahoma Sherriffs have announced that they would not be enforcing the ATF's new pistol brace rules whenever they go into effect. The primary reasons are the citing of Oklahoma's Second Amendment Sanctuary Act and the unconstitutionality of the new rule.

Yesterday (02-24-21) Oklahoma legislators passed another bill, HB 2273. It's a companion bill to SB 6 which passed the Oklahoma State Senate earlier. Both bills would make it illegal to photograph or video law enforcement and publish it on an online site, forum or social media platform. There's been a lot of confusion and concern with the two bills as you can imagine. So what exactly will the new law(s) do and what are the penalties be for violating the law(s)? Also, if this does become law when will it take effect?
