Don't Leave Your Child Unattended in a Car Safety Seat
Children should never be left alone in or around a car whether they are in their car safety seats or not. Any of the following can happen when a child is left alone in or around a vehicle:
The temperature in a vehicle can reach a deadly level in minutes, and the child can die of heat stroke.
She can be strangled by power windows, sunroofs or accessories.
She can knock the vehicle into gear, setting it in motion.
She can be backed over when the vehicle backs up.
Don't leave your baby unattended in a car safety seat outside of the vehicle either. When your baby falls asleep in her car safety seat, it can be tempting to bring her inside and leave her alone in the seat, but this can be unsafe. Your baby can fall out of the seat, or the seat can fall over. The best place for your baby to sleep is on her back in a safe crib.
