FORT WORTH, Texas — The intense North Texas heat can be unbearable, and even deadly, when one is simply outside in the elements. The conditions inside a vehicle are even more insufferable.
These past weeks there have been repeated stories about the dangers children and pets face when left inside a hot car.
To help North Texans better understand how dangerous temperatures can be, CBS 11 News reporter J.D. Miles, with MedStar EMTs and paramedics at his side, conducted a hot car experiment.
