“A 10-pound dog can turn into 300 pounds of force at 30 miles an hour,” said Richard Romer, AAA’s state relations manager. “Going on a trip with Fido can really turn fatal if it’s not restrained.”
But while traffic safety experts say a dog moving freely in a car can be dangerous for the driver, passengers, other motorists and the pet, it’s perfectly legal in most states.

It will not be in a few years. They love passing feel good laws. = $$$$
Give them time to figure this out $$$
If you REALLY care about your pet, you would always restrain them. You can't predict when an accident might occur.
9:32 yep
This incident happened to a neighbors. They
had dog in back of his SUV . the accident threw
the dog completely fwd. , from back seat to
the front of vehicle, it broke the dogs back.
actually this sounds like a great idea to me, because then they wont feel so inclined to take their dogs in the store with them! Sorry but I can't stand when I see a dog in a store, and know for a fact that the animal is not a service dog!
New Revenue generator!
I agree.
12:10 These aren't the dirty dogs you older people would keep tied up or in a cage outside and throw food to on the way to work. Today's dogs are cleaner and better cared for than most children. Regular spa treatments, baths, nails clipped and painted, go to vet if they sneeze or didn't eat their gourmet dog food from the cold display case. I would be more concerned about getting sick from the little disease factories called children that parents let run around the store with snot covered hands touching everything and dirty diapers sitting in the shopping cart child seat.
