Guess what? The distraction was just enough to slow my response time causing a minor "rear-ender" with the pickup. No serious damage, but it could have been. It does happen!

Captain, Lovely new avatar!
No question, dogs can certainly cause accidents in cars as well as golf carts.
Too bad we have to learn lessons the hard way.
I don't even permit my dogs in the front seat of the truck because I'm worried they could get killed by an air bag if there is an impact.
