SAFETY MOMENT: In Hot Summer Months, Remember To ACT!
A—Avoid leaving children alone in a car. Don’t leave children or animals in a hot car. Even 10 minutes is too long! If it’s 85 degrees outside, it only takes 10 minutes for the temperature inside the vehicle to reach 104 degrees. C—Create reminders. When a child is in a car seat in the back seat, leave a toy in the front seat as a visual reminder. Another suggestion is to put a phone, briefcase, purse, or other frequently used object in the back seat while a child or pet is in the car. T—Take action. Pay attention in parking lots. If you see a child or an animal unattended in a car, call 9-1-1. It could be the most important call you ever make.
