Eric Jackson.... How Reckless Can One Be?

Today, I read on the Grey2K FaceBook page how Eric Jackson drove to Vaughn, New Mexico to rescue a one-year-old Italian Greyhound. The IG had been left in a drop box.  Anyway, after picking up the hound and while driving back to Albuquerque, Eric Jackson showed just how brilliant he is....  NOT!  He took a "selfie" of him driving with the dog sitting in his lap!

Eric Jackson & Dog In Lap

One has to wonder how many laws he broke taking this self-indulgent picture.  How many people were endangered?  

While most people on the Grey2K page are oohing & ahhing, feeding the ego of Jackson & company, only 3 people commented on how dangerous his actions were.  Darn shame a State Trooper wasn't around when this happened.  

Here are the comments of the three smart people.

"Kerry Caslow: How is that safe letting that dog ride in the driver's lap???? HUGE pet peeve and remarkably irresponsible. I have witnessed people get in wrecks over nonsense such as this."

"Ki BL: Taking a selfie with a dog in your lap driving down the highway...... How many laws did you break for that picture and how many lives did you risk? What wonderful work you do! Dumbass."


"Emily Burnett: Driving with the dog in his lap AND taking a selfie......really smart....insert sarcasm anywhere."

Three comments out of 191.  Guess we should be happy that there are 3 people who noticed. And, to think this guy is an instructor at the University of New Mexico.  Wonder what they'd think of his recklessness and arrogance?  


Yours in Greyhounds...
