Re: dog seat belts
regarding the videos on the sleepy-pod link...
Pay attention to the head and neck of the "dog" in those videos. Be aware that this does not accurately illustrate how a sudden stop might affect the head and neck of a real dog in the same scenario ( strapped into the harness ).
The "dog" front legs are very obviously forced into a straight out position in the direction the bench was travelling when the "impact" occurs. Without restraint, the head will also be forced very brutally in the direction of motion and will pull the neck/torso with it.
