Winter Car Emergency Kit

Getting stuck in snow or stranded on a cold highway is far safer with a kit in the trunk. Everything here fits in a small bin or bag and covers the basics recommended for winter driving.

What to keep in your car this winter

Get moving: a jump starter with air compressor and a folding shovel
Stay warm: mylar blankets, an emergency bivy, a balaclava and insulated gloves
Be seen and heard: a rechargeable flashlight with window breaker and a loud whistle
Stay connected: a power bank and a hand-crank radio
Treat injuries: a compact car first aid kit

Pair your kit with our printable Cold-Weather Car Readiness checklist so every driver in the family knows what's in the trunk.
