$1000 Fine for Pets Without Seat Belts & More!

Today I have 2 Stories for you!!!

$1000 Fine for Pets Without Seat Belts

Under New Jersey Statute 4:22-18, having an unrestrained pet in a vehicle is considered animal cruelty, and drivers who don’t have them restrained will be subject to fines that range from $250 to $1,000 and as much as six months in jail.
