My  fearless  protector male 
that travels with me a lot is in a crate  right behind the  drivers seat....I 
can 
get to his door to unlatch in  about 3 seconds if I  needed him. 
I have no problem with this  law.



We need to realize that the crate not only protects the dog,  but us as well. 
The AR people call it mean to keep dogs in kennels, they should  run free. 
The AR people tell us we are abusing our dogs to put them in boxes,  (and it is 
to protect them if we have an accident).
 
While it sounds good to say we should keep the dogs free in  the car, it is 
the same people who used to say we should not keep kids locked  down in car 
seats, or wear helmets while riding bikes.  There are some  issues of safety 
that 
over come the need for personal desires.
 
If you want protection, strap on a 45 when you drive.  Or  better yet, keep a 
K-bar knife on the dash board.  Now, that is a safety  measure.
 
A sign on the window about German shepherds should be enough,  and if need 
by, arrange your crate to be able to release your dog when you need  to. But, 
for the safety of yourself and you dog, recognize the value of a  crate.
 
I like a dog in my lap, but not at 70  mph on the  freeway.
