Why are pet owners so stupid?

My Husband was driving home this evening [during the rush hour] and in the lane to his left and one vehicle ahead of him was one of these pick-up trucks that had a "lift kit" on it was in the lane there. In the bed was a large dog carrier with a beautiful cream-colored Husky in it. The carrier was just sitting there not secured. The tailgate was also down.

You all can see where this is going.

As the truck accelerated forward at high speed, the carrier slid backward and out of the truck into oncoming traffic. Upon hitting the pavement, the carrier which was made of plastic shattered open and the dog was laying there whereupon the poor dog was run over by the truck just behind him who was driving too close to the 1st truck.

The dog was run right over and died instantly.

My Husband, unfortunately, had to witness this, to his dismay. My Husband and I are both pet owners, we both have been depressed all night.

The 2nd truck driver realizing what he did screeched to a stop and got out to see if he could do anything.

Alas, it was too late.

Witnessing the accident, he too stopped in the middle of traffic to see if he could do anything.

Yes, the two of them stopped rush hour traffic, but they had to. They could not just drive on like the truck that had the dog carrier in it.

To watch something like that and to see such a beautiful dog die because of an owner's negligence is not a good thing. my poor husband is not going to sleep well tonight and for a while.

WHY ARE PEOPLE SO FU*KIN' STUPID TO HAVE A PET AND NOT TAKE A FEW EXTRA SECONDS TO SECURE IT IN THEIR VEHICLE?

Is it not the same thing when someone drives with a dog in their car/truck and the window is down so the dog can put its head and maybe their whole body out said window? All that person has to do is start or stop suddenly and it's "Bye, bye pet".

Yes, yes. we know, we all love our pets and want to take them with us wherever we go, but really? Do we really not give a fu*k enough for our pets to take appropriate measures to protect them from possible harm? Would we all that have pets be pissed off at someone else who didn't do it and caused them harm?

Come on people, protect the animals that you SAY AND CLAIM THAT YOU LOVE and secure them on the vehicles. Don't let them be in a cold or hot car. Don't let them "have the run of the vehicle" without restraining them.

DO IT FOR YOURSELF!

DO IT FOR YOUR LOVE OF THE PET!

DO IT FOR THEIR PROTECTION TOO!

DON'T BE AN ASSHOLE THAT DOESN'T CARE ENOUGH ABOUT YOUR PET...

IF YOU LOVE THEM.
