Does the Tempe Police Dept unlock car doors when the keys are locked inside?
The Police Department has a group of volunteers who work occasionally as Motorist Assist units. They are able to: open car doors, help change tires, jump vehicle batteries, give small amounts of gas, and fill tires with air. Police officers do not normally respond to do any of these requests. We do not attempt to open car doors on vehicles that have power windows and/or power locks. We will respond to any type of vehicle that has the keys and a child or animal locked inside at any time.
