As temperatures are rising be aware of HOT CARS! Temperatures inside a car can rapidly rise even on days that you may think are not too hot. These temperatures can reach life-threatening levels within MINUTES. A childโ€™s body heats up THREE to FIVE times faster than an adult, making them especially vulnerable to heat stroke which can cause damaging health issues such as organ failure, brain damage or death. Hundreds of children have died after being left or trapped in a hot car.

Many of these cases involve loving, attentive caregivers who made a simple but fatal mistake. Other times, children climb into unlocked vehicles without adults realizing.

Raising awareness and taking preventive measures such as ALWAYS checking the back seat before locking the car or setting an alarm in your car and overall, NEVER leaving your child alone in the car are some important steps to take to avoid at all costs any kind of incidents. If you see a child alone in a car call 911 immediately.
