Should hot car deaths be criminally prosecuted?

@Trinopus

Agreement. I’ve driven around with my computer in the back seat of my car, and you can be darn sure I never forgot it and left it!

Really? Maybe you just forgot that you’ve forgotten previously. By your own admission your memory is terrible:

You are very likely correct; my memory is terrible these days.

I’m sitting here participating in SDMB discussions…and blew right through a dentist’s appointment. Just pure forgot.

My speaking vocabulary is suffering terribly as I get older. I’ll know there’s a word I want, but it just won’t come to me.

I used to grab my chattels and go out the door…until the day I left my keys behind. Now, I consciously observe myself putting my keys in my pocket. It’s become a kind of mental ritual. I must clearly visualize the action before I allow myself to be satisfied and head out the door.

Dunning-Kruger anyone?
