Some
Safety Facts about Driving with your Pet:
See ALL Dog and Pet Car Seats
While there is little information regarding the dangers of an unbelted pet in an
automobile crash, studies do indicate an increased risk of injury and death
- not only to your pet, but to drivers and passengers as well.
A study done at State
University of New York-Buffalo Center for Transportation Injury Research
examined nearly 300,000 fatal crashes over a several year period. It was
noted that the odds of driver death were 3 times higher when
passengers seated behind them were not restrained. A 60 lb animal loose in the rear seat of a car
can create a
forward force motion of 2,700lbs in a 30 mph collision.
 
Unrestrained in the front seat, dogs may sit in your lap or near your
feet. Unprotected in the passenger seat, pets can be injured by the sudden force of the air bag as
it is deployed in a
collision. The
O’Donnell Pet Safety Car Seat provides a boost for your pet allowing
them to look out the window and adds the protection of a four sided foam cocoon that works with
the seat belt system installed by the vehicle
manufacture.
