[Histonet] Dry ice - transportation

[Richard Cartun]

Are there any restrictions on the transportation of dry ice (and human tissue) in private vehicles?  Our PAs cover a surgical center off-site and we need to transport frozen tissue back to the hospital for biobanking purposes.  They drive back and forth in their own vehicles.  Thanks.
