The JAF = Japan Automobile Federation has said that children are left behind in the car in the heat due to "locking the key" in which the door is accidentally locked by getting out of the car with the key in the car. I am calling your attention.
According to the JAF, there were 63 cases in August last year in which children were left behind in the car due to "locking the keys" and the JAF was dispatched. It is said that there were cases where rescuers were rescued by breaking the door glass instead of unlocking.
Also, in response to the JAF's interview, there was a case where they answered, "I accidentally pressed the lock button when I gave my child the key."
In an experiment conducted by JAF, when the outside temperature was 32 degrees, the temperature inside the car exceeded 40 degrees in 20 minutes in the sun and exceeded 35 degrees in 30 minutes in the shade.
Yasushi Miyake, director of the Advanced Critical Care Center at Teikyo University Hospital, who is familiar with heatstroke, said, "The heat index inside a car in midsummer reaches a dangerous level in a short period of time, and children are prone to heatstroke because they have a low ability to sweat. During the Obon season, some people use their cars for the first time in a while, so just in case, choose a parking lot in the shade or in the basement, and be sure to take your children with you when you get out of the car." increase.
