As so often described, it is not, this is a restraint system in a serious traffic accident. We use it for our Chihuahua for rides. He quickly realized that he so has only one imaginary room for him in the back seat. After a few trips he realized his place. I think better a dog secure than not it. Therefore 4 stars. In addition, the adapter should fit in most vehicles. We drive several Hyundai models and it always fits.
