Saw a loose dog the other day on a narrow, secondary road. It was just
strolling down the road. People need to take more care of their pets.
If someone instinctively swerves to miss a dog or cat and crosses the
center line and causes a head on collision, then not only is it likely
the pet will be dead, but so too might be some humans.

In summary, some consequences of loose pets are:

 - a dead pet
 - dead humans
 - living with the guilt of knowing you let your pet stray and cause
   humans to die
 - possible charges of involuntary manslaughter and jail time.
