Kansas City, MO — As temperatures rise, so does the risk of vehicular, heat-related illnesses and deaths for children. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) Region 7, which includes Arkansas, Iowa, Kansas, Missouri, and Nebraska, is working together to promote the national Look Before You Lock effort to ensure that children are not left in the car by parents and caregivers, and that children cannot gain unsupervised access to motor vehicles. As of today, 16 children have already died due to vehicular heatstroke this year, according to NoHeatstroke.org.
