When you’re stranded on the side of the road due to a weather event or a breakdown is the wrong time to find out that you don’t have the items you need in your car in case of an emergency. Putting together a basic emergency kit is fairly simple. Below is a list of items that could come in handy under unexpected circumstances.
Emergency Kit For Repairs:
- Can of tire inflator/sealant
- Spare tire, wheel wrench, and jack
- A small portable battery jumper or jumper cables
- Basic tool kit
- Gallon of coolant
- Quart or more of motor oil
Emergency Kit For Safety:
- Portable fire extinguisher
- First aid kit
- Reflective triangles or flares
- Flashlight with extra batteries
- A block that can charge your cell phone when your car isn’t running
- Paper and pen
Emergency Kit For Comfort:
- A space or other type of blanket
- Drinking water
- Snacks that are non-perishable like protein or granola bars
- If you have children, you might want to include coloring or puzzle books, or some other small things to keep them occupied.
Check your emergency kit every couple of months to make sure batteries have not expired and to replenish snacks and water. Being prepared in case of an emergency gives you peace of mind for yourself and your family.
