I have received an email from a friend, telling me the following........

... Spain has now passed a law making it an offence to drive with flip flops or thong sandals citing safety reasons. You can wear sandals but they have to have a strap around the heel. It is also an offence to drive topless (men and women), so if you are planning on driving to the beach over the next couple of months be wary of these new regulations! We suspect the enforcement will be quite lax but you could be the unlucky one ...

Does anyone know if this is true?
