It's An Emergency. Are You Ready?




By Tracy Dawson

Accidents. Crashes. Collisions. Emergencies.

These could happen any time while you are driving on the road. You may not be the real reason why these happened, however, you still could be one of those parties who simply were at the wrong place at the wrong time.

With this in mind, it is important that you are always prepared for the inevitable. Being prepared lessens the worry and anxiety that such untoward events could bring upon you. Prepare some important odds and ends that you might find useful in case such things happen to you.

You can use a cardboard box or a plastic box to keep everything you would need for your emergency kit. This way, you would not have to try to locate the items in case they have rolled their way into the nooks and crannies of your car's interior. A box would give you easy access to the items and you could easily find the things you would need.

Then, start by collecting all the items you would need to stock inside your emergency box. If you have no idea whatsoever as per the items you would most probably be needing, you can get some help by purchasing a first aid kid manual or booklet. Also, it would be best to have a first aid kit inside your emergency box. Try to include also an AAA or a roadside emergency card.

Put in everything else you would need for changing a tire. Do no forget to include a jack, a spare tire that has the right amount of air pressure in it, a lug nut wrench, a tire iron, as well as a pipe which you would be using for leverage. You could opt to put this inside your box or you can choose to let them stay in your car's trunk which is the usual location of these items.

Other things you might want to consider stocking inside your emergency box could include a flashlight with batteries, additional fresh batteries, triangle reflectors, flares, rags, a funnel, all the necessary fluids, screwdrivers, pliers, an adjustable wrench, jumper cables, gloves, duct tape, spare fuses, and a list of contact numbers.

Mercury vehicles are just one of the vehicle makes that is included in Auto Parts Corner's list of vehicles. To purchase Mercury parts like speed sensors, you can simply visit the site and access its wide and informative collection of such.
