You might want to visit a military surplus store for a military grade Poncho. They’re Extremely rugged, and extra large. They can do triple duty, as a poncho, ground sheet, or sleeping bag. Put it on in the car as a first line of defense should get stranded in the wintertime.

Enough money in small bills to completely fill an empty tank should be stored where it isn’t too convenient to borrow from. If your credit card doesn’t work or if you need to buy 2 gallons gas from a farmer in the middle of nowhere (that’s why I said small bills - don’t want to ask him for change for a $100 bill)

@FrakkingCreations Год назад

Good idea to have some cash on hand! Thanks for sharing your idea.

@rebeccaclementz3756 9 месяцев назад

Someone else said he once had vehicle trouble and the tow company said it would be six hours before rescue. An independent tow truck came along but he didn't take credit cards. It's a good thing he had emergency cash in the vehicle.

2 gallon fuel container. Running out of gas is an emergency too, especially in aggressive weather and/or in an unsafe area.

@FrakkingCreations Год назад

Thanks for sharing. Question for you would be where to store the fuel container for cars? It is a hazard to store in the trunk or cabin. The specialized fuel containers vent gasoline fumes if the fuel in the container gets warm/hot and the fumes could be dangerous if inhaled or builds up in the trunk/cabin.

That’s some outstanding preparation! Lived, & traveled in all provinces, & territories in all seasons for my whole career. You’ve gotta be ready for Winter. I’ve been rolling up strips of carpet remnants, with short roofing nails driven through them. Just role them out, & drive over the ice! They take up space, but worth it, the first time you need them! Two long strips have really helped me, out of a few icy spots! A few times, many other vehicles, where thankfully, that I had them. Drive carefully, & smile often!

Ladies, sports bra, hair ties and a brush and/or feminine products like pads or tampons. Good alternative to cotton ball or pads for injuries if you have tape in your kit.

A tampon isn't an alternative to a dressing, unfortunately, as a tampon is only designed to hold a relatively small volume of fluid.

@altitudeiseverything3163 Год назад

I’m confused . . . Why would I want to keep a sports bra in my survival kit? 🤔

@user-bi8ko7kc6h 18 дней назад

@@altitudeiseverything3163well, if you are comfortable enough not to wear underwear then you’re fine. Most women aren’t comfortable to go out without underwear. Sports bras are a lot more comfortable than regular bras.

@altitudeiseverything3163 18 дней назад

@@user-bi8ko7kc6h No, I wouldn’t want to go without underwear. However, I find *sports* bras to be tight, restrictive, and hot…. Overkill and the opposite of comfortable. Good for gym workouts, running, and mountain-biking, but unnecessary for everyday wear. I don’t need a lot of support, so any soft, natural fiber, wireless, pull-on (no hooks, when comfort is the goal) bra or bralette works for me. But, really, when we’re talking *”car emergency,”* a bra wouldn’t make my list at all; a simple safety pin can temporarily mend a broken strap, and is multi-purpose for other mishaps. Actually, a spare pair of panties would be a higher priority; that would be a logical accompaniment to the emergency pads/tampons.

Good looking kit! One thing i would recommend though, is instead of that 4 way lug nut wrench, I'd recommend a good breaker bar, a 1/2 ratchet, and a set of deep sockets. It's not fun when you need to change a tire and find out that the lug nuts were torqued down an insane amount where one of those lug nuts just won't do it.

@dabaydestrian437 2 года назад

It gets over 100 degrees in the summer where I live.. will things like lighters and fire extinguishers explode in that heat in the car?

@FrakkingCreations 2 года назад

They shouldn't for temperatures that are possible in a car during the summer. Here is what I have found... For the fire extinguisher, they typically have safety valves that will release pressure if pressure gets too high (for example, the tank gets heated). The valves will fail before the tank will. One word of caution would be that if the safety valve fails, the contents of the fire extinguisher would start coming out. If stored properly in the vehicle, it may not be an issue. I believe most public service vehicles like police and EMT have fire extinguishers on board. For lighters, Mythbusters did a test of this (Episode 65) and their results: BUSTED: A lighter can explode on a car dashboard. BUSTED: A lighter can explode when put in a laundry dryer. Check it out here: mythresults.com/episode65#:~:text=A%20lighter%20can%20explode%20on%20a%20car%20dashboard.&text=There%20was%20no%20reaction%20for,the%20interior%20of%20a%20car. That said, I still wouldn't put these anywhere where direct sunlight can hit them. Hope this helps.

@DonzLockz Год назад

No, I was a smoker for 20 years and always had a few lighters in my work van.... in the sun, a typical summer would get to 40⁰C here. Also, fire extinguishers are perfectly safe too. LPG tanks are also okay. Where possible, atleast try and keep them shaded. Oh, a white car doesn't get as hot as a dark coloured car.🍻👍

@FrakkingCreations Год назад

It's true that there is a lot of items here and though it packs up nicely into a box and bag it might already take up most of the trunk space in a smaller vehicle. Not all items are necessary for everyone since everyone has different needs and have different situations. You will have to choose what makes sense for you based on the usage of your vehicle. For example, are you driving only within the city or between cities? Are you driving in winter regions? And other questions you can ask yourself to determine what you will likely need or absolutely not need.

@GothicKittyMadness Месяц назад

haha this is overkill! this isn't a breakdown roadside kit this is for camping!

@FrakkingCreations Месяц назад

Is it? A roadside emergency kit will be different for everyone. As with most things in life, everyone will have different requirements and needs. Not everyone has the same requirements as you might based on where you drive. Not everyone lives their lives like you or me. An roadside emergency is … an emergency, and you won't be able to predict what kind of emergency. But you can be prepared based on what you do and where you drive. It's always up to the individual to decide what they need based on their situation and circumstances. I just provided a list of items that can be useful in a roadside emergency kit. A person driving short distances only within the city will not need much in their kit. People are around, there's cell coverage, friends and family are relatively close enough to help, it's easy to get food, water and shelter. But a person driving in rural areas where not many people pass by and in winter conditions will need more. Getting stranded in these conditions can mean the difference between life and death. So yes, the items required for this kit will look a little like a camping kit. There is no one size fits all here.

@FrakkingCreations Год назад

Wow. Snake oil on what items? You really think none of these items should go into an emergency kit? What is in your emergency kit if all the items I mention are snake oil? Or maybe you think any emergency kit is snake oil and wasting money. Everyone's situation is different and you are supposed to make your kit based on your needs. For example, don't add the winter items if you don't get snow where you live.

@altitudeiseverything3163 Год назад

Hmm…. Try telling that to the US midwesterners recently trapped on highways for days in their cars during sub-freezing temperatures. And where I live, in the Rocky Mountains, winter and spring avalanches frequently leave people stranded overnight, or longer -often many miles from the nearest town, in brutal conditions- until that massive amount of snow can be cleared. Not being properly prepared can be deadly!
