A roadside emergency kit can help to save your life in an emergency. Buying a pre-made roadside emergency kit may not be the right option for you given the cost of building one as well as the possibility that you won’t find one that contains all the components that you need. If you choose to build one on your own, consider adding the following items to the roadside emergency kit that you store in your car.

- Medical emergency kit

- Road flares

- Jumper cables and a quick battery charge kit

- Cell phone battery charging kit

- Shovel and other tools

- Block of wood to help you get out of mud traps

- Tire and windshield patch kit

- Emergency food and water supply

- Emergency blanket and tent

Ultimately what you put in your roadside emergency kit is dependent on how and where you drive. Consider the aforementioned items as well as the manner and location where you drive when building your kit. Also, remember to see us regularly at Autohaus BMW in Saint Louis, MO, so we can keep your vehicle in a safe and effective working condition.
