What things do you keep in your car for emergencies when their is snow and ice on the roads?

Question

Sorry, I meant THERE

Answer 1

A pair of cloves. You dont want to be changing tires or pushing vehicles out of the snow with frozen hands.

Answer 2

Nothing really so lets hope that I never get stranded.  I don't drive on the interstate much unless I'm leaving town and even then I'm bad.  I'm a sad person.

Answer 3

Blanket, kitty litter or sand (for traction if you get stuck), flashlight, snow shovel, extra pair of winter gloves and a pair of boots (in case I've gotta walk). And of course I always have my cell phone with me.

Answer 4

extra gloves and blankets, flashlight, one of those ones you just shake up to work, Jack and tire iron, first aid kit. Just the normal things anyone else would have I guess.

Answer 5

You should carry the following...Shovel, flares, blankets, candles, a strong rope 50 ft or more, chocolate bars, water, bag of sand or salt,first aid kit,warm clothes and mits,fire extinguisher,flash light and spare batteries,if you dont have one a cell phone to call for help if in the boonies. I think that is all. PS.. Make sure spare tire is not flat. Its no good on the road flat is it!!Make sure jack works.

Answer 14

IF going to SNOW area always carry:Change of clothes, gloves,hats, scarves,  blankets, thermas with hot water, coffee, hot chocolate or tea. Have plenty of snacks and music. CELL PHONE or WALKIE TALKIES or better yet a CB radio. Which I have. Old school but still cool. Snow chains and know how to use them. ALSO inform neighbors, friends and family you are going in snow area and for how long you will be gone.

* Empty coffee sized can with lid in case you need to use bathroom. (I know gross) but if you are stuck in traffic you will be thankful for the big coffee can and empty it at a rest stop and wash it for next time.

Matches or lighter, Vaseline and cotton balls. Rub vaseline with cotton balls to start a fire if needed. I have this in my auto ALL the time, not just snow season. Flat shovel,  flares, bottled water for everyone (2 each) games if kids are with you. Sitting in the snow if trapped is no fun of course but I remember going to Tahoe a few years back and the games saved us from whinny kids. Traffic stopped for 4 hrs.
