In recent times, several incidents have occurred nationwide and locally, resulting in the loss of young lives due to extreme heat inside vehicles. Law enforcement and state leaders are promoting awareness to prevent such tragedies. A simple car tag is being suggested as a reminder to check the backseat for children, especially on hot days.

Temperatures in parked vehicles can escalate rapidly. Further information on this initiative and the risks associated with leaving children in vehicles is available from local news sources, including details on where to obtain the reminder tags.
