According to AAA, nearly 90 percent of people say they will travel more than 50 miles this holiday season. Here are a few items you should keep in your vehicle to make your travels safe and enjoyable this holiday season.

Tissues and Hand Sanitizer

With cold and flu season in full swing, the standards of home should follow you to your car. Tissues can be used to clean up messes and noses. A small squirt of sanitizer on a tissue makes an impromptu rag to get stuck hot cocoa off faces and cup holders.

A Blanket and Candles

A warm blanket can save your life if you get stuck on a long road trip these holidays. Besides keeping you warm, a brightly colored blanket can be used to signal for help in an emergency. A small tea candle can help keep you warm if you run out of gas in the cold.

Snow Brush and Ice Scraper

A small snow brush and ice scraper might not be used daily, but when you need one, they are worth their weight in gold. Whether staying closer to home or traveling somewhere with snow, a snow brush and ice scraper should be in your vehicle.

An Extra Hat and Gloves

The temperature can change quickly when you’re traveling. Having a warm hat and some gloves close by can make filling up a much more enjoyable experience.

A First Aid Kit

A basic first aid kit should be in your car all year round. If you don’t already have one, adding a small kit that fits in the glove box is a great idea.
