A very sad story! I'm glad at least that the daughter survived.

That's just so sad, and so preventable.

What's worse, we've seen it before. The person who stays with the vehicle survives; the (inexperienced) person who walks out for help does not.

It's as if every vehicle needs to come with a small survival/first aid kit for the glove box, with big friendly letters on the cover -- "Don't Panic!" and "Stay With Your Vehicle and Survive!"
