That cat's way too small to be away from it's mother.

Might be the real reason the Uber driver bright it to work, seems like an okay job if you're someone who fosters orphaned kittens.

It really isn't.

Ignoring that someone getting jerked around by The Gig Economy won't have time to nurture a kitten, people REALLY need to properly secure pets in a car. It is fun when they are wobbling around in the back seat when you are driving around.. until you need to stop suddenly or get rear ended or have a more severe accident.

Cats are much less willing to be restrained in a harness. But there are some carriers that are designed to be properly restrained and... it still won't be good for the kitty but it will at least minimize how far they go flying.

True. Loose animals in vehicles = dead animals in an accident.

I know.

I'm sorry but you can't see anything. You don't even know what is happening in the photo and you're already angry and extrapolating. Calm down. Try assuming the best instead of the worst

You can literally see that the car is moving in the middle lane of a freeway. On top of the unsecured animal they are looking at their phone and have zero hands on the wheel because hUrRdUrR sElF dRiViNg.

Looks like a Tesla screen, so it’s all okay because the car is self driving.
