Is it illegal to drive on the interstate with a dog in the back of a truck?

Question:
I was driving into work this morning and passed a truck on the interstate with a large dog in the back. It bothered me because I think interstate speeds are too fast for someone to have an animal riding around loosely in the bed of a truck. I almost called the highway patrol to report it, but I decided not to because I wasn't sure if the driver was breaking a law and I didn't want to call the police for something that wasn't reportable. Was he breaking the law? He was going in the slower lane about 60-65mph, but still I worried about the dog's safety.

It depends on the state you live in. I agree that it is irresponsible and dangerous for dog owners to do this, even on residential streets. These owners don't think about what would happen if a piece of debris flew into the dog or what would happen if they have to slow down quickly, stop quickly, or swerve. I think Maine does have a law that prohibits the practice. But people are still morons.

If the dog jumped out and caused an accident or damage to anyone else's property the owner and operator of the pickup could be held liable. Needless to say, the dog would be toast.
