The article, authored by MACS technical advisor Ward Atkinson, explores the science behind the potential exposure to dangerously high body temperatures that can occur to a person or animal remaining in a parked vehicle without an operating A/C system.

“We see it every summer, the tragic death of a child or animal left behind in a hot car,” explained Elvis L. Hoffpauir, MACS president and chief operating officer. “MACS has released this article in hopes of driving awareness of the problem to help save lives.”
