[nagdu] Doggie seat belts

[Raven Tolliver]

Most of the people I ride with are twenty-somethings with jobs,
school, and junk all over the God blessed place in their vehicles. For
instance, my older sister has 3 jobs and goes to school. She
practically lives out of her car and has stuff for all 3 jobs in
there, school books/supplies, and garbage. So like her, people just
throw stuff on the floor in their cars, and there's sometimes junk on
the seats, too.

If I'm in the back of a vehicle where 2 people are in the front seats,
it's can be practically impossible to put my dog on the floor,
depending on the height of the folks up front.

When I ride in Taxis or Uber vehicles, I always have my dog on the
floor out of consideration for others. I never thought of it as a
safety precaution.

I never rode with my dog in the front seat with me. I'll have to try
that. Conveniently, I preferred to enjoy my foot room, but I'd rather
my dog be safe. This was such an eye-opening experience. Thankfully,
nothing worse happened.
