Hot Weather Warning: Never leave vulnerable individuals in parked vehicles.

Reviewed by Todd Vandersline / SantaClaritalocal.org

The Santa Clara CA Fire Department in Santa Clarita is warning about the dangers of leaving children, disabled or elderly adults, and pets in parked vehicles during hot weather. Studies show that the temperature inside a parked car can rise rapidly, even with windows slightly open. This can lead to severe consequences for people and pets as their bodies struggle to regulate internal temperature. It is vital never to leave vulnerable individuals or animals unattended in a parked vehicle, especially in hot conditions.
