Our experts at MINI of Charleston are always standing by to help motorists. One way that you can improve safety when you're out and about is to have a roadside emergency kit. There are an abundance of roadside emergency kits on the internet, or you can make one on your own.
Basic roadside emergency kits typically come with a first-aid kit, jumper cables, a flashlight, batteries, and a tool kit. If you live where there's snow and ice, then blankets and an ice scraper should be included in your kit. A quart of motor oil and coolant are also beneficial items to have in a roadside emergency kit.
You can store your roadside emergency kit in the trunk of your car, but keep it where it's easy to reach. If you need to access your roadside emergency kit before help arrives, it's important to be safe. Turn your emergency flashers, and if you can, pull to an area that's lit.
