Do not make the mistake of thinking that your pet will naturally behave in the car if it has never been inside the vehicle for a trip before. Allow it to get accustomed to the car slowly so that it will not misbehave or distract the driver.
It can be easy to keep your pet in a crate in the car, but you will have to plan for more frequent stops to let it stretch its legs. Watch for signs of your pet getting nauseous in the car. Make sure that it drinks enough water if it vomits so that it does not get dehydrated. It should not be left alone inside a vehicle even for short periods. It is safest for your pet to lay down so that it is not ejected from the car on sudden impact.
