As the temperatures continue to drop it becomes increasingly more important that we start preparing for the worst so that we are always ready. Whether your car breaks down in the snow or you are faced with a large puddle that is too deep to cross, you must be equipped with the essential emergency items, just in case! Gathered is a list of 5 emergency items you should always have in your car during the winter:
- You should always have flares in your car in case you become stranded and you are left without phone battery or cell service.
- A battery-operated radio equipped with extra batteries is the only way to ensure that you will be able to remain up-to-date on what is happening, even if the electricity in your car is not running.
- You never know how long you will be stuck for, so having nonperishable foods is a must!
- You may not be able to depend on your cellphone for relief, so make sure to have flashlights and extra batteries in your car as well.
- If you are stranded in your car and the electricity is not working, you will be happy to know you have spare winter clothes and blankets in your emergency kit.
