As winter gets closer, it’s important to be prepared for anything.
Vehicle emergency kits are a simple, but effective way of making sure you have everything you need if you end up in a bad situation.
Kaitlynn Furse, the corporate communications director with CAA says there are some things you should think about adding to your emergency kit in the winter: Things to keep you warm, like extra blankets, socks, and mitts. Things to keep you visible, like flashlights, road flares, and candles. And a little shovel in case you need to dig yourself out.
Furse adds that keeping your phone charged is always helpful.
Most calls to CAA in the winter are because of a dead battery, Furse urges people to make sure their battery is strong enough to make it through the winter.
Anyone wanting to buy a vehicle emergency kit can do so at any CAA store.
