Maximus is in his crate with the door shut and the crate is in the seat belt. I imagine no one expects to get in a car wreck when they leave out for the day, but there is always that slight chance. I'd rather be safe than sorry. I would be devastated if anything happened to him or one of my kids and they weren't in their seat belt.
I have to deal with the flip side too. My dh says that injuries can happen because of seat belts. His brother was killed with his seat belt on. Broke his neck. Of course, he was drunk, and driving at a God awful speed when he hit an oak tree. Maybe he would have survived if he wasn't in a belt? Who knows. Wearing seat belts just makes me feel better.
