Should dogs be required to be restrained, while riding in/on a vehicle?

Asked by john65pennington (29258points) February 23rd, 2010

Since dogs are required, by law, to be leashed while out in the public, should a new leash law be instituted to require dogs to be leashed, while riding in/on a motor vehicle? my question concerns the safety of dogs. i see many dogs in the bed of pickup trucks and on motorcycles, that are not strapped down for their safety. a t-bone crash would surely mean disaster for an unstrapped dog. whats your take on this situation?
