In Arizona it is illegal to leave a DOG or Child alone in the car.
Of course, this makes some common sense in a HOT desert.
BUT... I do not know if the law is written in a common sense way.

My brother was visiting and one cool night we decided to run to the store. The dog jumped into the car with us, and since he liked the dog, we brought him along.
We shopped quickly and headed back to the car. Standing by the car were two ladies, and one of then was on the cell phone talking to the police! The other one started to scold us, and said "Do you know it can get above 140f degrees in that car in minutes?"
I rolled my eyes, looked at the sky, and said " I don't see how, it is night time, the sun is not going to heat up the car.
She gave me a blank stare, and started up talking again...
I said "Let me introduce my brother, the High School science teacher, I'm sure he can explain it to you."
The other one told the ploce never mind and hung up the phone.
We exchanged a few curtious words and left.
