It currently is a crime to smash the window, Although in some cases the animal owner will also be charged.

depends what the make and model of car it is

No, call the police/RSPCA.

I don't think it should be legal, shouldn't get yourself involved in that way. If you are concerned then as said above then call the police or the RSPCA, it's not your place to smash a window.

I wouldn't hesitate to smash a window to get an animal out of a hot car.

[lemons]

yes! smash it to pieces! pop the tyres as well stupid owners

Unless the animal inside is literally on it's deathbed and the RSPCA aren't going to get there quick enough, then no you shouldn't.

i think its the right thing to do but im too scaredy

they die horrible unneccessary death some1 should act tbh i probs would if i could see time was running out

also in most cases im sure the owner would be more thankful their poor pet is alive than a smashed window

[Futz]

yeah I go around parking lots in summer looking to smash car windows in

sometimes there isn't even an animal inside

Would probably best to call the Police or RSPCA and get them to help the trapped animal instead.
