Three young children — ages 4, 1 and 11 months — died in recent days after being left or becoming trapped in hot cars for hours in Washington state, Texas and Florida, according to authorities.
The deaths of the children, two of whom were left in vehicles as their parents went to church and work, increased the number of hot-car deaths among children this year to six, according to NoHeatStroke.org, a website that tracks hot-car deaths. The six deaths so far this year are double the total at this point last year, according to California meteorologist Jan Null, who tracks the incidents on the website.

“The biggest takeaway is to never leave your children alone in a vehicle,” Fennell said. “But we all know, it’s not that easy.”

Many parents or others who leave kids in hot cars and die aren’t criminally charged mostly due to a lack of criminal or malicious intent, Fennell said.

The Bipartisan Infrastructure Law passed in 2021, requires the U.S. Department of Transportation to finalize a rule by November mandating that new vehicles be equipped with a system to alert drivers to check rear-designated seats for children when the engine is shut off.

Wasn't there that guy who came to this website several years ago and it turned out he was looking for ways to off his kid via hot car (and had then done so and made national news)? It was picked up by Dr. Drew et al. and instead of chastizing the guy who killed his kid, he went off on CF people for "giving him ideas"? I can't be making that up right?

How is it anything but easy to remember to bring the smelly, shrieking asshole in the backseat with you?

Doesn't matter if the intent is allegedly not malicious. Manslaughter is when you kill someone by accident and it's a charge that should be brought against every negligent breeder, no matter how many crocodile tears they cry.
