Close to a third of van owners risking £5,000 fine for not securing dogs when driving
Dogs need to be properly secured to avoid drivers facing fines
Thousands of van drivers could be risking a £5,000 fine by driving without properly securing their dogs in their vehicle, a new survey has found.
The study, commissioned by Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles, found that 41 per cent of van drivers who own dogs would rather take them to work than leave them at home or with a dogsitter.
However, a third of the 1,000 van drivers questioned admitted to improperly restraining their dogs when driving, which could lead to distractions behind the wheel and increase the possibility of an accident. In fact, one in 10 drivers have had an accident with a pet in the vehicle or know someone who has.

Volkswagen takes control of Audi in Australia
Volkswagen takes control of Audi in Australia
February 01, 2021
But consumer benefits still unknown and Porsche, Lamborghini and Bentley stay independent
Volkswagen Group Australia (VGA) has taken control of Audi Australia in a move that the companies argue will strengthen the position of the three brands in the stable – Volkswagen, Audi and Skoda – and potentially provide a better deal for buyers.
There are no promises of price cuts, or any planned changes to individual dealer networks, or a reduction of model line-ups.
But VGA says it should have a stronger bargaining position with the individual brands’ headquarters in Europe, and that the overall result will be a leaner and more efficient operation in Australia.
