Yes—under South Australia’s Animal Welfare laws, leaving a dog in a car in conditions that cause or are likely to cause harm can be an offence.
Cabin temps can rocket past 50°C in minutes, and cracking a window is about as helpful as a chocolate teapot.
Police and RSPCA officers may intervene to remove an animal in distress, and you should call 000 if it’s an emergency.
If you must stop, take the dog with you or arrange shade, ventilation, and water outside the vehicle.
For precise wording and penalties, check the Animal Welfare Act 1985 (SA) or RSPCA SA guidance—but the short answer is: don’t do it.
