h a l f b a k e r yI like this idea, only I think it should be run by the government.

Stuck by yourself in traffic when your water breaks? Are you a lone bank robber in a getaway car jammed among thousands of commuters? With one of our masks on your front seat pooch, you’ll whisk past the trucks and single occupant vehicles in the fast lane.
The various tested-on-humans-humane masks
skilfully disguise snouts, face fuzz, standing or hanging ears and panting tongues. Transform your German Shepherd to a … German shepherd or your Collie bitch to a … lassie, in a second. Wind tunnel trials ensure mask adherence to heads hanging out the window at up to 100 mph.
Jokingly similar idea

so there are lanes where you can only drive if there are 2 of you in the car? |

Whoooeee. That was *not* a well planned getaway. What are you using, an intercity train? |

(I now have images in my head of idiot students seeing how many of them fit in a mini for charity (sp: beer money)) |
|

Grandma, what big teeth you have. |

<off topic slightly> squeak, anyone who gets their beer fun as a charity is not an idiot, </off topic slightly> |

FarmerJohn how realistic are these masks going to look? Especially if the dog ends up sticking it's head out of the window, good idea apart from that. |
|
| |
Winds down window......dog sniffs the air (as only dogs in cars can do....Bye Bye mask and hello HOV-lane-abuse fine. Apart from that - Bun! |
|

Semi-baked already [link], although + for the wry dog-based twist. I heard, anecdotally, of some guy in the Bay Area who fooled the HOV lane cameras with a blowup doll. Initially his fine was just for the basic one-time violation, but upon further reviews of the film archives the authorities discovered a pattern of abuse stretching back for months. So they added up the fines and he owed something like one MEELYON dollars.... or so the urban legend goes. |

toe - no (gotta keep down the chit-chat). |

Agree with werdna.Someone was busted in Toronto driving with a mannequin in the passenger seat, in the car pool lane. |
|
| |
In Seattle a woman with a blowup doll got in an accident... with a full school bus... on the freeway... Nobody hurt, but it must have been humiliating. |

I usually tell them that Jesus is riding with me. |

or a six-foot tall (1.83 m) white rabbit... |

//I usually tell them that Jesus is riding with me.//
Better back that up with a "God is my Copilot" sticker, there's no telling What Jesus Would Do on this one. |

Good idea. I suppose it would work for cats, too? I could probably get away with bringing a cat along to work. They usually just sleep anyway. Dogs would be too noisy/messy to bring to work, and I really only need the HOV to get to work. |
