Car Lockout in Austin: what to expect

Lockouts happen everywhere, but we hear about them most from lots and garages around Moody Center and Zilker Park and from busy streets in North Loop, Riverside and Windsor Park.

A child or pet locked in a hot or cold car is an emergency: call 911 before you call us.

Austin conditions that cause lockouts

Austin summers bring long stretches of 100-degree days that drain batteries and push engines to overheat in traffic.

Flash floods along creeks and low-water crossings can close roads within minutes during spring and fall storms.

SXSW in March, Austin City Limits in the fall and Formula 1 race weekend at the Circuit of the Americas bring heavy traffic, road closures and packed parking across the city.
