Car Safety

Never leave children unattended in a car—not even for a minute!

• The temperature inside a car can get dangerously hot, even in moderate weather with the windows down.
• Children left alone in a vehicle even for a short time is in danger of abduction, injury, dehydration and death.
• Always lock your car and secure the keys so that your kids can't get them.
• Warn your children about playing in and around cars.
• Get your kids out first and then worry about unloading the groceries and items out of the car.
