Roadside Emergencies Happen — Here's What to Pack (and Who to Call) When They Do

Whether you’re driving through NYC or stuck in NJ traffic, the road can throw surprises your way. A flat tire, dead battery, or sudden breakdown can turn into a major headache — unless you're prepared. That’s where an emergency car kit comes in.

What to Pack in Your Emergency Kit

Must-Have Tools:

  • First Aid Kit: For minor injuries on the road.
  • Jumper Cables or Jump Starter: A quick fix for dead batteries.
  • Spare Tire, Jack, Lug Wrench: Essential for flat tire situations.
  • Flashlight + Extra Batteries: For visibility at night or in low light.
  • Reflective Triangles or Road Flares: Make your vehicle visible to others.

Safety & Comfort Items:

  • Water & Snacks: Keep energy up while waiting for help.
  • Blanket & Warm Clothes: Especially important in cold weather.
  • Charged Power Bank: Make sure your phone works when you need to call for help.
  • Small Fire Extinguisher
