If you see a child alone in a vehicle:

Always make sure the child is okay and responsive. If not, call 911 immediately.
If the child appears to be okay, attempt to locate the parents or have the facility’s security or management page the car owner over the PA system.
If the child is not responsive and appears to be in distress, attempt to get into the car to assist the child—even if that means breaking a window—many states have “Good Samaritan” laws that protect people from lawsuits for getting involved to help a person in an emergency.

Remember: kids and hot cars are a deadly combination. Don’t take the chance. Look Before You Lock.
