Everyone should have some type of emergency road side kit in their vehicle but the reality is that only 34% of us have something in our car.  The last time I checked, your vehicle isn’t going to put its’ hand up and say “I think I will break down today.”  So hopefully we never need it but it always good to be prepared.  The following is a list of things we should keep in our vehicle.

• Booster cables
• Windshield washer fluid
• Blanket
• Water
• Autoclub membership
• Chocolate
• Flash light
• Tire pressure gauge
• Candles
• Lighter
• Window scraper/brush
• Boots
• Old cell phone- you can still dial 911 even if it isn’t hooked up to a service, just make sure it is charged: )

The only time I have ever needed to use my emergency road side kit is when I’ve been driving other peoples vehicles and they haven’t had one in their vehicle.  Very annoying!
