Prevent Child Heat Stroke Deaths in Vehicles

Created by J.F. on July 14, 2014

In the last 20 years more than 670 children have died in hot vehicles.

As of July 15 this year 17 children had already died, reports KidsAndCars.org.

These unthinkable tragedies can be prevented.

We the People call on the Obama Administration to authorize the Department of Transportation to prevent children from dying in hot vehicles by doing the following:

• Provide funding for research and development of innovative technology.

• Identify, evaluate and test new technology to accelerate implementation of the most feasible and effective solutions.

• Require installation of technology in all vehicles and/or child safety seats to prevent children from being left alone left alone in vehicles.
