KIDS and ANIMALS left alone in Cars Please be reminded of the dangers of leaving children in cars. Today and like most days in Australias summer have the potential for serious injury and death. Leaving children in a vehicle is an offence and you can be charged. Police take all reports of children left in vehicles very seriously and a priority. If you see a child left in a vehicle please contact police immediately!!! Temperatures can reach over 55 degrees inside a car in less than 10 minutes. Babies bodies will start to shut down in less than 30 minutes when a car becomes a green house. I Locked My Child in the Car People, Theres nothing like the sinking realization that your keys are inside the car with a young child snapped into her car seat. Smile and wave to the kiddo while you figure out your next move. What Youre Going to Do: Assuming your phone isnt in the car, call for help. Depending on where you are (a crowded mall parking lot, your own driveway), you have a few possibilities: Dial 000, if you dont have a phone, enlist a friend or a passerby to get assistance for you. Dont leave the car! You have a loud voice use it! Ill repeat that you have a loud voice use it. If its a warm day, cover the windshield and windows with blankets or newspaper to keep it from getting too hot inside. Obviously, leave gaps so you can see the kid and she can see you. Continue to smile, wave, and make faces. It is urgent that you get your child out of the car as soon as possible. Find something hard and break the corner of the window furthest away from the child.
