Certainly, their feet were hot from the friction of the shoes on the pavement, which is why they kept standing on one foot or another. Also for certain, there aren't many roads that smooth and ripple free around here.

IMO, to matter to this thread those Saudis would have to let go of the car and see how long they could stay on their feet.

I've done similar to the Saudis antics on my motorcycles to scrape oil or grease off the soles of my shoes after getting off work from certain jobs I had back in the day. But I never did let go of the bars or get off the seat. The soles of those shoes were always short lived.
