Now really... Don't you wonder how they allow this in Hawaii? There's a strict Click It or Ticket law here but darn if you can't have kids ride in the back of trucks totally unrestrained. We've seen quite a number of kids (grown-ups, too) riding happily in the back of trucks on the freeways and nobody thinks anything of it.
But dogs? Oh yes, they must be strapped in some way to the back of the truck. Does this make sense? I suppose some people would prefer there not being too many laws but this seems to be disaster waiting to happen.
I wonder if other states allow it, too.
UPDATE from Yesterday's GREAT ALOHA RUN:
Would you believe it? The race results were just posted and I added it to yesterday's post but I'm posting it here to make sure my son sees it.
Art's time: 1:22:22
Kay's time: 2:56:12
(Note for my son, Jon: What do you think of that, hunh? You were chuckling (or was that out and out laughter?) when I told you that my time was 3 hours and 13 minutes yesterday. You kidded me that marathoners often finished in less than 3 hours. Well, there you have it! My "racing" chip has recorded my time as UNDER 3 hours. Woohoo!)
