Waiting to cross the road the other day a car passed me with a spaniel type dog on the driver's lap trying to lick her face. Madness. Good to know it invalidates insurance - should be against the law.

Yes, they should be crated in an estate car, or restrained with a "doggy" seat belt on the rear seat.

It has always astonished me that people who buckle up for their own safety, clearly don't care enough about their dogs to do the same.

As for letting your dog's head poke out of the car window - total lunacy.

Up until recently I sat in the back with my small dog on my knee.

Read about this and we now have a restraint for her. Took a while to get used to it but all's well now.

Makes sense really.

...that driving with pets who are unrestrained could invalidate your insurance and in certain cases land you with a fine of £5k, 9 points or a ban, even if the animal is not the direct cause of an accident involving your vehicle?

Do you drive with your dog on the passenger seat?
