Enclosed Transport - Is it ok to leave the windows open?

Gallardo has wide doors and hard to get in/out especially in an enclosed transport (6-car trailers with lift gate). If the car stays with driver window open, would that be OK during the transport? The car will be on the upper stack.

Anyone transported their car in an enclosed transport window driver open?


Thanks

Shipped my Esprit from Florida to Arizona via enclosed transport. I didn't leave a window open but based on how clean the car was it was pretty secure. However be advised many enclosed transports are soft sided and not exactly sealed.

Is there no way closing the window after you left the car?
If not seal is with some newspaper/plastic and tape for peace of mind.

These people know what they are doing.
But for added measure you can request them to bubblewrap your entire car for a small extra fee

The car is shipped already. I called the driver to tell him about the window issue, he told me not to worry as he had done that lot of times specially when the car has wide doors.

At this moment, there is nothing more I can do but to wait.

Here is a picture of the truck
