   Is it a problem if the tzitzis on your talis is touching the floor, when sitting during davening?

   Some Poskim do mention that it should be avoided. There is a difference between having them dragging on the floor Derech Bizayon and just touching Derech Kavod because you are displaying your Tzitzis.

   Also, I feel like it's a Mefurash Gemara in Brachos that it's Muttar.

   If its only touching the floor and its not being dragged then its a Machlokes Poskem.

   Within the actual beis haknesses itself is ok and not a bizayon as we see from the clothes of the kohen gadol that dragged along the floor of the beis hamikdash. The floor is holy. However in other parts of the shul building it is a lack of kavod

   the other day i saw a man driving and his tzitzis were stuck in the car door hanging on the bottom.
   people need to be more aware of their tzitzis
