If they do, they
could be very seriously injured in a
crash. Leaving
children without
adult supervision is illegal in most
states and Canadian provinces,
and can be very hazardous. Even
very young
children learn how to unlock
vehicle doors, turn on the ignition
switch, and open the trunk, which
can lead to accide ntal injury or
death.
For
example, a small child left in a
vehicle on a hot day can die from
heatstro ke. A child left alone with
the key in the ignition switch can
accidentally set the vehicle in
motion, possibly injuring
themselves or others.
Children who play in vehicl es can
accidentally get trapped inside.
Teach your children not to play in
or around vehicles. Know how to
operate the emergency trunk
opener and decide if your children
should be shown how to use this
feature(seepage ).
During a crash, the
belt could press deep into the child
and cause serious or fatal injuries. If you are not wearing a seat
belt in a crash, you could be
thrown forward and crush the
child against the dashboard. If you
are wearing a seat belt, the child
canbetornfromyourarmsandbe
seriously hurt or killed.
64
Additional Saf ety Precautions
Never let two children use the
same seat belt . Do not leave children alone in a
vehicle. K eep vehicle keys and remot e
transmitters out of the reach ofchildren.
Lock both doors and the trunk when your vehicle is not in use.
Never put a seat belt over yourself
and a child.
Never hold a small child on your
lap.
