With summer now in full swing, it is important to be mindful of leaving children and pets in hot cars.
According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, a child can die at temperatures reaching 107 degrees.
Medical personnel say reaching those temperatures can happen rapidly.
What you might think is a quick trip into the store, those 10 minutes can mean a 20 degree difference in the temperature inside versus outside the car.
Always double check your vehicle before leaving it unattended after traveling with kids and pets.
