A four-year-old would be left alone in a parked car while the heat puts the child’s health in danger. Is even a short absence permitted?
Correct answer: No, not even for a short time.
Why
For a child under 6, Florida prohibits any unattended period when the engine is running, the child’s health is in danger or the child appears distressed. The separate rule against more than 15 minutes does not excuse these situations. Take the child with you and check the back seat before leaving.
Verified against Fla. Stat. §316.6135: Leaving children unattended or unsupervised in motor vehicles; penalty; authority of law enforcement officer · Child alone in a dangerously hot car
