    A needless tragedy to say the least, the adults left in charge of the children in different incidents should be shot~


    STORM LAKE, Iowa - A 2-year-old boy died after his teenage uncle left him in a car for five hours as temperatures soared, authorities said Friday.

    In Idaho, a 1-year-old boy was found dead Wednesday evening in a locked car in temperatures topping 95 degrees. He was locked in the car for about five hours when passers-by noticed him, and the boy’s stepgrandmother was charged in his death, authorities said.

    It's mind boggling to me as to how this happens.

    I hate hearing about stories like these. Or when idiots leave their animals in the hot cars too.

    Of course, it is perfectly ok for a trucker to be left in a hot vehicle. Heaven forbid he idles to bring the temperature down.

    I have to agree with you on this, I can't believe there is a law that does not allow you to idle the truck :biggrin_25513:
