Yeah, I'm kinda surprised, too. I thought the open alcohol container law had been around for a long time in all states.

another concern was also that a dog inside car can get very protective and prevent rescue workers from retrieving an injured person out.

Could be.

One time, when our Labs were in the back seat of the car, TCS turned on the car radio, which had speakers in the back of the car. It started out with a man's voice speaking. Well, our male Lab pounced on the speaker, barking and snarling at it until it "went away." Yikes!

p.s.

The one time we had to pay a toll with the dogs in the back seat was a nightmare. When TCS rolled down his window, and the toll taker stretched out his hand, our dog leaped into action! TCS threw out the money, which hit the ground, and the toll taker waved us through.
