additionally to the rules broken, you will be stressing your animals with the vibration of road travel, and the inability to provide a consistent environment.
ahahha 6ft python on the dash wont attact cops at all. i lost points because my dogs jumped into my lap while driving and cops thought i was driving with the dog in my lap.
So long as you are not traveling to WA or Tas and you snake is a common variety python it is fairly simple to do this
If you use a soft insulated box the vibrations etc have zero effect on the snakes
When moving keep the snake in a cotton bag like a pillow case to prevent possible whiplash injuries
My snakes went up and down the East Coast for years and were handled daily with no obvious signs of stress etc
{I had licences in each state]
You can't do that legally these days. Unless you're an exhibitor (read: another, more expensive licence) you can't move animals from state to state without permit. Even as an exhibitor you need to let the 'authorities' know when and for how long, and what species you plan to move. Crazy, but that's the way it is in good ol' Oz!

WA basically has a blanket ban on import of pythons. Our regulator (DEC) says it is due to IBD. So you will definately lose it if it comes into WA. And we have border check points at the top and the bottom. You could hide if of course but if you look nervous they will probably check the car over fully
Yeah not worth it hey CheersDont risk it i say. Might cost your snake its life if busted with it...
