Mr. Squirrel, as an ecologist and biology professor, I have driven around with various animal body parts fairly often.  During one semester, when I taught a human anatomy course at an off campus location, I drove with human body parts at times.  Once, when I was stopped for speeding with a whole, articulated human skeleton sitting in the back seat, the fellow who stopped me was rather taken aback, and had questions, but of course, the whole thing was perfectly understandable.

Why wouldn't a rational human being drive around with a horse (or other) skull at times?
