Use Of Auto Emergency Kits In Your Vehicle

Use Of Auto Emergency Kits In Your Vehicle

by Eric Holm

Auto emergency kits are an essential tool for any vehicle. Emergencies happen when we least expect them - and the best way to avoid being stranded for long periods of time on a deserted road is to be equipped with an auto emergency kit.

One of these kits can include tools to fix your car or a first aid kit. They can also have blankets, food and water in them. Granola bars and energy bars are a good thing to have in an emergency situation. A first aid kit should have bandages, gauze and scissors. It will also need to have adhesive tape, hot and cold packs, pain relievers and antibiotic ointment.

A flashlight is also important for an auto roadside kit. Extra batteries should be included also. Emergency flares, a help sign, pen and paper is good to have also. The things needed to change a tire are very important also. A spare tire is very important along with a vehicle jack, tire gauge and a tire iron that is the right size for your lug nuts. It is also important to have a way to inflate a tire or possible the type that can fix a small leak. Sometimes when the tire is just low, you will be able to inflate it until you can get to a garage.

Because all roadside emergencies are not caused by tires, auto emergency kits should contain tools that allow basic repairs to be done on the vehicle. These should include flat head and Phillips screwdrivers, vise grips, adjustable wrench, pliers, pocketknife, or a multipurpose tool containing many tools in one. Other items that can come in handy during a roadside emergency include oil, antifreeze, windshield washer fluid, rags or paper towels, duct tape, and an ice scraper.

Living in a fast-paced world often requires lots of travel. Whether you have a long commute to work or just like to take long trips, it is always best to be prepared ahead of time. Auto emergency kits often mean less time stranded and more time on the road. If you became stranded today, are you prepared? Be sure to equip your vehicle with everything you need to ensure a safe trip - and be sure every driver is familiar with the tools contained in your auto emergency kit and knows how to use them. Safety first - whether in the home or on the road.
