Safety Council Offers Free Online 'Children in Hot Cars' Educational Course

https://www.nsc.org/road-safety/safety-topics/child-passenger-safety/kids-hot-cars A key paragraph from NSC (registered trademark official name, also known as National Safety Council, a nationwide non-profit organization): "In 2018, 53 children died in hot cars (in the USA). It was the deadliest year on record in the past 20 years. Since 1998, more than 800 children have died from vehicular heatstroke; 24% occurred in employer parking lots while the parent or caregiver was at work. Parents and caregivers can act immediately to end these preventable deaths." "Here's another alarming fact: Heatstroke (to children in an automobile) has occurred when outside temperatures are as low as 57 degrees (Farenheit)!" After you click on the link above, you will need to click on the phrase "this training now (English version)" or "Spanish (version)", then click on the menu (leftside upper panel). You then on your own will apparently need to manually select each and every mini-lesson you want to hear and see and study in this approximately 10-minute educational course that is for your and your children's---or others' children's---benefit.
