It looks like the orange center strap would keep the yak from lunging forward or back. I have a compact sedan and use the 'el cheapo' yak carrier from Yakima, so I find more comfort in placing front and back straps that tee pee onto the left and right lower parts of my front and back. That way, I don't need to tie the ends. I just tighten the straps a bit to add a little pressure. Putting a block of Styrofoam inside the yak keeps the pressure from warping the PE.
