Leaving children without
adult supervision is illegal in most
states and Canadian provinces,
and can be very hazardous. For
example, infants and small
children left in a vehicle on a hot
day can die from heatstroke. And
children left alone with the key in
the ignition can accidentally set
the vehicle in motion, possibly
injuring themselves or others.
The following pages give general
guidelines for selecting and installing
child seats for infants and small
children.
Children who play in vehicles can
accidentally get trapped inside the
vehicle. Teach your children not to
play in or around vehicles.
Even very young
children learn how to unlock
vehicle doors, turn on the ignition,
and open the tailgate or hatch
glass, which can lead to accidental
injury or death.

Protecting Children
Do not leave children alone in your
vehicle.
Lock all doors and the tailgate
when your vehicle is not in use.
Keep vehicle keys and remote
transmitters out of the reach of
children.
