What to Pack in a Car
Hitting the open road with your barkada or family is a great way to spend your vacation. If you’re going on a road trip in the near future, here’s a list of (13) car essentials you should have on hand for your next adventure.
- Any paperwork related to your car, including your valid driver’s license, car registration, and your car’s manual.
- A spare tire, in case you need to replace one.
- A jack, to change the tire.
- A roadside emergency kit, which should include jumper cables, tire pressure gauges, early warning devices, among others.
- An old school paper map, because you never know when you’re going to run out of service or battery.
- A first aid and personal hygiene kit, which should also include any medicines needed by the passengers and driver, as well as bug spray.
- A multitool to fix any minor repairs.
- A flashlight if you’re going camping or for extra lighting in areas with particularly low visibility
- Phone chargers and USB cords, to keep your electronics powered up.
- A power inverter for convenient and long lasting charge on your electronic devices.
- A dashboard cell phone holder, so you can keep your eyes on the road and hands on the steering wheel.
- Healthy snacks and drinks for when you inevitably get hangry in traffic.
- Motor car insurance from NCIA to help you, your family, and your friends stay out of the woods both on the way to and during your trip.
