Preventing Heatstroke In Children From Being Left In Cars | Cash for Cars Atlanta

According to the NHTSA, annually an average of almost 40 children a year die of heatstroke or fatal heat injury from being left inside a car in hot weather. These alarming numbers have prompted the agency to start a prevention campaign, “Where’s Baby? Look Before You Lock”.  Over half the children in who died were left by overstressed parents who simply forgot their child was in the car.  Car safety experts are now looking for ways that technology may help reduce the number of heat related tragedies. 

If car technology is the answer, how would it work?  Many safety experts believe aftermarket reminder devices are the best solutions. Devices remind of so many things, including open doors, lights left on and low fuel, why not a reminder that a child was left in the care?  Still, there is a concern if such reminders and devices will actually work.

A small number of these devices are on the market now.  The NHTSA are not fully satisfied wit h the quality of what is currently available thought.  They found that many of these reminder devices interfered with other electronic devices, required too much effort or did not work properly when exposed to liquids. They like the concepts of the devices, but feel the execution still needs work.

So the work continues, the importance of which is critical.  Every aspect of car safety is so crucial. If you have more questions on car safety, contact your local trusted mechanic or visit the NHTSA site.
