How long can raw chicken be left in the trunk of a car?

How long raw chicken can be left in the trunk of the car depends on how cold the chicken is to start with and the temperature in the trunk of the car. From the store to home should take no more than 20 minutes. If it takes longer than that, bring along a cooler with ice and place the chicken in that. The warmer the chicken gets - or the longer the chicken stays warm - the more bacteria will grow and the chicken will spoil more quickly.
