Items To Keep in Your Car When Travelling
Posted on October 4, 2023
After visiting us at Acura of Oakville and driving home in a new Acura from our new inventory, you might be considering taking your new vehicle on a trip with the family. Before hitting the road, you might want to consider getting some essential items to keep you comfortable, safe, and ready for anything that the road might bring your way.
Ten Essential Items To Have In Your Car While Travelling
License & Registration:
Having your license and registration is a given, but getting pulled over without them while travelling will result in a hefty ticket that can ruin your vacation.
Spare Tire:
Never remove your spare tire to fit more cargo since you never know when you will have a flat tire, and your spare would be the quickest way to get back on the road.
Tire-Pressure Gauge:
A tire pressure gauge is small and helpful while travelling, allowing you to check the tire pressure on the go to know if you need to add air to your tires.
First-Aid Kit:
A first-aid kit is always a great item to have in your vehicle since there are many situations where it comes in handy.
Extra Sweater or Jacket:
Having an extra sweater or jacket is a great idea, allowing you to stay comfortable on chilly nights or during winter weather.
Windscreen Covers (Privacy & Heat Protection):
While your vehicle is parked, having a windscreen cover can protect the privacy of what’s inside your vehicle while travelling, and it can keep the cabin cooler on hot summer days.
Flashlights:
A flashlight is a perfect item to have to be able to perform various check-ups while travelling at night, such as checking the oil level or windshield fluid.
Food:
You should always pack extra non-perishable foods on your trip for emergencies.
Water Container:
You should always bring extra water on your trip in case of emergencies.
Bug Spray:
Having bug spray in your vehicle will save you from itchy bites during summer.
