Anyone who has had a roadside break- down in their car understands this. A flat tire or an engine malfunction is something no driver wants to experience, but those with a well-stocked vehicle emergency kit and breakdown strategy can get through most situations rath- er easily. A 2017 survey from A A A found that 40 percent of driv- ers in the United States are not ready to handle a typical roadside emergency break- down. The organization es- timates it helps some seven million motorists get back on the road each summer. A well- equipped roadside emergency kit may help drivers get their vehicles back on the road on their own. • First aid kit: The first aid kit will celebrate its 133rd birthday in 2021. The John- son & Johnson company be- gan commercializing first aid kits in 1888. Having a first aid kit in the car to treat minor injuries can be helpful in the event of an accident or even af- ter injuring oneself during a breakdown. • Fire extinguisher: Cars are full of various mechanical parts and are susceptible to catching on fire. The Nation- al Fire Protection Association says vehicle fire extinguishers need to be rated for Class B and C fires. • Jumper cables: A weak or dead battery is often the cul- prit in breakdowns. Jumper cables enable drivers to get a charge from another motor- ist, and may help get a per- son back on the road quick- ly. If possible, get a set of ca- bles that also comes with safety gloves and heavy duty clamps, offers Defensive Driv- ing Online, a defensive driv- ing course. • Mobile phone/charger: A mobile phone is essential for calling for assistance, but the phone is only useful if it's charged. • Blanket: Keep a blanket in the trunk or another stor- age area. Should the vehicle die in cold weather, that blan- ket can help keep passengers warm until assistance arrives. • Basic tools: Tools like a screwdriver, ratchet set and wrench may enable drivers to complete minor repairs. Tools also should include tire-changing gear, such as a jack and lug nut remover. • Traction aid: Non-clump- ing kitty litter or sand can pro- vide the traction needed to get off of a slippery area of road- way. • Flashlight: A flashlight can help keep you visible and able to see your surroundings in dark conditions. • Flares: Should a break- down occur in the dark, flares can alert other drivers. • Snacks and water: Water and food that stores well, such as emergency rations, grano- la bars or trail mix, can quell hunger pangs and provide an energy boost while waiting for help. • Rope/bungee cords/tarp: These items can be used in various situations to secure a vehicle. While drivers can gather these items separately, many companies offer all-in-one ve- hicle emergency kits. A safety kit is essential for all drivers.
