could be trapped in the vehicle in an emergency and will not be able to
get themselves to safety.

closed vehicle can be extremely high or extremely low resulting in seri-
ous injuries and illness or even death, particularly for young children.

in the way.

nents and then reassemble them carefully to avoid damage to the vehicle.
