Before embarking on a lengthy road journey, it's wise to double-check a few essential items. Although a resident in Southern California may not need an additional parka, they would still need their identification documents. Some of these things may not be necessary for city drivers, who are never far from a mechanic, but those who live in rural areas or are on a long journey should review the list beforehand.
This kit provides the necessities for operating your automobile and overcoming road hazards. A "Good Samaritan" moment may present itself when you can aid a helpless stranger. Perhaps, but it makes the points more vital! Good driving is just part of the equation if you want to avoid danger on the road. These ingenious creations may save your life or help you escape a potentially disastrous situation.

1. First-Aid Kit
Include safety pins, scissors, gauze, tape, band-aids, antiseptic ointments/sprays, and more in your first-aid kit. You may use it to better prepare for injuries ranging from simple cuts and scratches to sprains, fractures, and severe wounds. The kit should also include adhesive tape and bandages in case you get cuts or blisters on your feet from walking on shattered glass. Remember that you are required by law to carry a certified first aid kit and an emergency automobile kit.

2. Flashlight With Working Batteries
You should always have a flashlight and extra batteries in your car in case of a blackout or any other situation when you need to see your surroundings in the dark. It's also an excellent method to check the road for hazards like glass that could have been missed at first glance. Invest in a battery-operated model, or if you drive your own vehicle, one that can be powered directly from the cigarette lighter. In the event of an accident, a flashlight is more valuable than a safety triangle, mainly if it occurs at night.

3. Portable air compressor pump
When you have this Helteko portable tire pump on hand, you won't need to look for a gas station with an air pump or for quarters to use that pump. This handy tool uses the energy from your vehicle's battery to allow you to rapidly and safely add air to your tires. With the LCD digital display and auto-shutoff, you can be confident that your tires are correctly inflated. Make sure you know when and how to turn on your warning lights if you need to pull over for a quick air-up.
