A safety alert system for a motor vehicle cabin. Sensors within the sealed vehicle cabin will detect the presence of the person in unsafe circumstances - processes which could be used include temperature sensors, carbon dioxide sensors or capacitive sensors to name a few. Based upon preset parameters, a local alarm or notification or operator notification can be triggered near the vehicle if an alert condition exists, or in some embodiments remote alert notifications can be triggered to vehicle owners or safety authorities. An auxiliary sensor could be located within the trunk of the vehicle in addition to within the vehicle cabin - a carbon dioxide sensor or the like. A video capture subsystem could also be included, to capture video of the cabin of the vehicle on detection of the alert condition, and the video could be archived or transmitted to safety personnel. The method of detection of a human in an unsafe vehicle environment is also disclosed.
