Doors
-
The doors should always be fully closed and locked while the vehicle is in motion to prevent accidental opening of the door. Locked doors will also discourage potential intruders when the vehicle stops or slows down.
-
Be careful when opening doors and watch out for vehicles, motorcycles, bicycles and pedestrians approaching the vehicle in the path of the door. Opening a door when something is approaching can result in an accident and cause vehicle damage or serious injury and death.
Unlocked vehicles
Leaving your vehicle unlocked can increase the risk of vehicle theft or any possible criminal harm caused by someone hiding in your vehicle while you are gone. Always remove the key, engage the parking brake, close all windows and lock all doors when leaving your vehicle unattended.
Unattended children, the elderly or pets
An enclosed vehicle can become extremely hot, causing death or severe injury such as heatstroke to unattended children, the elderly or pets who cannot escape the vehicle. When left or trapped in a hot vehicle, make sure to stay hydrated and avoid sun exposure through the vehicle's windshield. Furthermore, children might operate features of the vehicle that could injure them, or they could encounter other harm, possibly from someone gaining entry to the vehicle. NEVER LEAVE ANY PERSON OR PET UNATTENDED IN YOUR VEHICLE.
