Now we will have the dogs taking the car in the middle of the night. :rofl:Cool story.

I saw that the other day. That is way cool. Now if I could get my dog to lay off the beer he could be my DD.

Sorry, but the folks down under are incorrect about animals having never driven cars before. In the early '60s Cappy the Chimp was trained to drive. Apparently she handled tampa traffic quite well. The police, however, weren't very amused by this accomplishment. IIRC they had to ticket Mr. slover because they couldn't write up a non-human.
Here's a link to a story for y'all http://books.google.com/books?id=8FMEAAAAMBAJ&pg=PA11&lpg=PA11&dq=Chimp+drives+Car+in+florida&source=bl&ots=Buypl7VxOH&sig=4w3zwDGBCNxD6MkQ6uCx-ISA4pw&hl=en&sa=X&ei=SMXAUIWCGIrh0QHNv4DIDg&ved=0CDgQ6AEwAQ#v=onepage&q=Chimp%20drives%20Car%20in%20florida&f=false enjoy!
