How did the Mom Do that? or was it I'm only going to be gone for a few minutes? Baby is sleeping and I can't be bothered

She gave the baby the keys and got out the drivers door to to walk round and get the baby out, baby locked doors....simple, possibly not the wisest thing to do but hardly negligent :rolleyes:

I couldn't bear the screaming anymore. It was heartwrenching. :(




















Then when the Baby joined in I just had to pop the window.


PS for those advocating smashing a small window. NO point once deadlocked with the key, none of the doors will open unless you have the key fob in ya hand. & As the baby had dropped em on the floor after locking the doors. I had to smash the front drivers door window So I could climb in the car and retrieve the keys off the rear floor. :rolleyes:

Then wait an hour or two for them to send out an assessment engineer, who can't actually do a lot, but, will then be able to call the right person... mean while everyone else can stand around and witness a baby slowly dying. :rolleyes:

Defo went with the right option - even trying to pull back seals and "fish" for the lock, etc. is not worth it when there is a baby stuck.

I've done 3 or 4 cars with baby's locked in them, I'm a roadside tech and all our techs have lockout kits with them and the skills to do this, our control room would put this job to the nearest tech and to the top of the list, eta usually less than 20 mins, I do agree the heat is a factor and if that's the quickest and safest route then go for it, and we don't pull back seals and fish for the lock it's not like on the movies these days

It was kinda frustrating as there were spare keys on the other side of town that were being fetched but as soon as the littlun became seriously distressed and having no real way to tell how hot it was in the car there seemed little choice.
 
Totally agree you have to make a decision based on circumstances at the scene, everyone was ok so a bit of glass is the least of your worries in the big picture

Fair enough, the AA did last time i was with someone who lost their keys.

Although, also seen a guy spend about 2 hours under a Audi with a computer to unlock it

baby car i would of done window, door lock, even door to get to baby. Even if keys where five minutes away. Baby life and our future, car a possession that can be fixed replaced
 
If she was driving a gaylander you coild have just thrown a bucket of water on it and the doors would have fallen off
 
Don't some modern cars auto-lock themselves anyway once the key's out of the ignition?

My son was in a similar situation years ago - due to his autism (people on the autistic spectrum have very strong habitual behaviour, things MUST be done a certain way every time), he had the opinion that once you got into a car, everyone HAD to lock their doors and put the seatbelts on. He pushed his door button down... but my mate's keys were in the boot!
Nowhere near the same urgency as this thread - after a couple of hours the AA got in.

Diff.

Never heard of that. Sounds dangerous. The only circumstance where my car locks itself is if it was already locked and you unlock it via the remote but then don't open any doors for a minute. It will then relock itself. It also locks itself automatically when you drive over 5 mph but that setting is optional and can be disabled.
