5 essential items you need to have in your car right now

Whether you are preparing for a road trip or you have just bought a new ride, there are definitely things that we will need to have handy in our car in case of emergencies. We've listed some of what we feel is the most crucial items you will need to have and feel free to expand on it. 

  1. Spare Tire and Jack: Carrying a spare tire in good condition, along with a jack and lug wrench, is essential for handling tire emergencies. It allows you to change a flat tire and get back on the road safely. Regularly check the tire's condition and ensure the jack and lug wrench are in working order. Fun fact: tires have an expiry date to them. You can't possibly keep a spare tire unused for 10 years

  2. Jumper Cables: Jumper cables are useful for jump-starting your car or assisting others whose batteries have died. They allow you to connect your vehicle's battery to another working vehicle to recharge and start your engine. Ensure the cables are long enough and in good condition.

  3. Fire Extinguisher: Definitely a portable 1kg fire extinguisher is a crucial safety item to have in your car. It can help you quickly and effectively extinguish small fires that may occur in your vehicle or nearby. Make sure to choose a fire extinguisher suitable for automotive use and familiarize yourself with its proper operation. 

  4. First Aid Kit: A well-stocked first aid kit is vital for handling minor injuries or providing initial medical assistance until professional help arrives. It should include bandages, adhesive tape, antiseptic wipes, gauze pads, tweezers, scissors, pain relievers, and any necessary personal medications.

  5. Emergency Triangle and Reflective Vest: In case of a breakdown or accident, having an emergency triangle or road flares can help warn approaching vehicles and improve your visibility on the road. Additionally, a reflective vest can make you more visible to other drivers if you need to exit your vehicle on a busy road.

Remember to periodically check and replace items in your car to ensure they are in good working condition and not expired. It's always better to be prepared for unexpected situations on the road. And if you've been putting off getting a suitable fire extinguisher for your car, be sure to check out our 1kg fire extinguishers. They are made to within heat inside a car.
