2. The “Unthinkable” Facts
 In 2010 there were at least forty-nine deaths of children in the United
States due to hyperthermia (heat stroke) from being in hot vehicles.
 In the previous year (2009) there were a total of at least 33 such fatalities
in the United States due to hyperthermia after they were left in hot cars,
trucks, vans and SUV's.
 Since 1998 there have been at least a total of 494 of these needless
tragedies.
 These incidents can occur on days with relatively mild (i.e., ~ 70oF)
temperatures and that vehicles can reach life-threatening temperatures
very rapidly.

4. The Facts “Heat Up”
 The temperature inside a vehicle can rise about 19°F in 10 minutes.
 Within 30 minutes, the temperature inside a vehicle can rise to 120°F
when it's 85°F outside.
 Children left unattended in hot cars account for 24% of fatalities.
 Children's thermoregulatory systems are not as efficient as an adult's and
their body temperatures warm at a rate 3 to 5 times faster than an adult’s.
 Children that have died from vehicular hyperthermia in the United States
(1998-2010) have ranged in age from 5 days to 14 years. More than half
of the deaths are children under 2 years of age.

5. Distractions Lead to Disaster
 The non primary parent is requested to take the child to daycare on the
way to work, is focused on the work day ahead, and forgets child is in car.
 Parent/caregiver is distracted by a phone call or another person, and leaves
child who has fallen asleep in safety seat placed in back seat of automobile
(by law).
 Parent/caregiver decides to quickly run into the store for “a minute.”
 Parent/caregiver unlocks door to house and rushes to answer ringing
phone or is distracted by other children, forgetting baby in car safety seat.

6. Global Problem
 The statistics provided only apply to reported deaths in the United States,
but the problem is a global one.
 Hyperthermia deaths of children left in cars have been reported in other
regions of the world as well—including Canada, Europe, the Middle East,
and the Caribbean.
 The most conscientious and responsible parents/caregivers from all
walks of life have found themselves in the “unthinkable” situation of
leaving a child in the car due to changes in the normal routine of their
busy lives.
