Wednesday May 21, 2014 has been designated as Emergency Medical Services Children’s Day!
Safe Kids’ own Gary Karton talks child safety on the street.
In 2008, at least 43 children across the United States died from heat stroke caused by being left or trapped in a vehicle.
Heat is much more dangerous to children than to adults. When left in a hot vehicle, a young childs core body temperature may increase three to five times faster than that of an adults, which could cause permanent injury or even death within minutes.
