The majority of motorists have no survival kit in their vehicle. It is normal after all since we probably never have been caught in a situation where we had to wait for help in the past. That said, it is important to have a survival kit, especially in winter, which, even if one never uses it, could well save your life.
It is very easy to prepare a survival kit, and it will last a long time if you never use it.
– A shovel along with sand or salt if your vehicle is stuck.
– Water and non-perishable food if you have to wait several hours before help arrives.
– Warm clothes, again if you will be in the cold for a while. Make sure you have a hat, gloves, jackets and coats as well as socks, boots and snow pants.
– A cellphone charger. You can use the USB port in your vehicle to charge your cellphone and call for help.
– Cat litter which can be very useful to help get more traction.
– Flares or other distress devices to warn other motorists of your presence.
– Booster cables if your battery needs a charge
Here are some tips to prepare your survival kit. Thank you to Amherst Chrysler for the tips!
