Power Window Danger

Has your child been injured or killed by the power windows in your car? Since 1990 at least 26 children have been killed when power windows closed on them. Rocker or toggle-type switches can easily be activated by a child who can then be caught in the window and choked to death. Newer, safer switches must be pulled up to raise the window.

"Becky Hergatt, whose 5-year-old son was nearly choked to death by a power window in June, says she can't understand why automakers don't install the safer switches." [USA TODAY]
