I think what you meant to say is, "when someone has/uses cell phone, ipod, ipad, mp3 player, drink, food, radio, CD player, GPS, notepad, pen, comb, brush, make-up, passenger, animal, child, etc. in the car distracting them they create a road hazard. So we can say that the government has a right to protect the population by making a law for the good of everyone"barstoolguru wrote:[ the problem here is when someone has a loose animal in the car distracting them they create a road hazard which affected everyone including the government because when you crash they/we have to clean up the mess and that makes it everyone’s problem.

The key word is "distracting." If you pass a law requiring that animals be restrained, wouldn't you have to pass laws saying the items I listed must be "out of reach" or "unused" or "out of sight" or "prohibited" as their use may distract the driver just as the unrestrained animal may?
