Prepare yourself with a roadside emergency kit so you can stay safe while making fixes or waiting for help to arrive. This kit could be the difference between a minor inconvenience and a major problem.
Roadside emergency kits come premade or you can collect items and assemble one yourself (we find this to be the cheaper option).
Not sure what you should have in your kit? Here are…
