I need to dig out my old external hard drive from my Iraq deployment in 05'. From my travels in Iraq and Kuwait I saw many odd things. Probably the most memorable was seeing a camel standing in the back of a tiny toyota pickup truck going down the highway in Kuwait.

What breed is that? Massive horns. I thought it was fake until I saw the video on my news feed.
Watch: Police pull over car with bull riding shotgun
The car had half of its roof cut off in order to fit the animal in.

It's tied up what's the problem.

I was thinking the same. I'm just guessing as someone who's never owned livestock, but I doubt they'll actually find any law he is breaking, with regard to livestock handling. I think where they could have him is on violating the GVWR of that car, but maybe not even there, if that beast only weighs as much as the 4-5 passengers the car is designed to carry.

That thing is going to block his visibility isn’t it to his left?

The bull weighed 2200#. Far exceeded the GVWR of the car. More like 12 to 15 people.

I can see why they didn't arrest him, what would they have done with that steer in a car?
========
In fact, the animal was a Watusi bull – a breed of cattle famous in Africa with gigantic horns.
The driver was identified as Lee Meyer of nearby Neligh and police performed a traffic stop on his car. Meyer told them that the Watusi bull’s name was Howdy Doody.
“The officer wrote him some warnings,” Reiman told the TV channel. “There were some citable issues with that situation. The officer chose to write him a warning and ask him to take the animal back home and leave the city.”
Meyer – whose car appeared specially outfitted to have a bull as a passenger – promptly did.
============
related factiod:
The Watusi is medium in size, with cows weighing 900 - 1200 pounds and bulls weighing 1000 - 1600 pounds. Newborn calves weigh 30 - 50 pounds. This small birth-weight makes Watusi bulls useful for breeding to first-calf-heifers of other breeds.

Which number is that? Including carry-on stuff? Checked baggage? Just the person in the seat?

I'm the biggest in my immediate family at 225lbs. That means 10 of me packed into that car to equal the same weight as the watusi and the driver.what kind of lightweights do you hang around?Youz Mericans is not a dainty pooplez.

But I would agree with you that I don't see many 175# men, these days. I weigh 173#, and am pretty fit, but nearly everyone else my age comments at what a skinny ******* I am. Of course, when they were 19 years old and actually in good shape, they weighed 175# too.
Nearly all women. Also, some fraction of airline passengers are children. I'm sure they're not guessing at the average, it's probably based on a lot of hard data.

Google says Watusi bulls only weigh up to 1600lbs, so that is only eight 200 pounders. And evidently Howdy Doody is a steer so take off another 10 lbs of bullhood. If you look at some of the footage Howdy Doody took a dump and lighted the load. At least what didn't stick on the rear window.
