No, not for riding in. I was backing down my drive way and this guy was walking his dog. The dog stopped--not the guy--and turned his head to watch me back down my driveway. Just frozen. Then, he lifted up is front, right paw and held it there until the guy tugged on the leash to get the dog walking again. Must have taken a good 20 or so seconds. People stare at my car, but never a dog.
