A car emergency kit is one of those things that you don’t think much about until it’s too late. Then you’ll wish you didn’t leave home without one.
Smart drivers keep a safety pack in their boot,so they're always prepared in case of emergency.
Here's what to put in yours in case of break-down,accident,or other unforeseen circumstances.

1)First-aid kit
These includes band-aids,adhesive tape,gauze pads,aspirin,antiseptic wipes,antiseptic cream or ointment.

2)Flashlight and extra batteries
Always remember to change the flashlight batteries every few months for non rechargeable types.The flashlight should be waterproof.

3)Siphon pump or hose
A siphon pump or hose can come in handy if you run out of fuel miles from a filling station,and a good samaritan offers a little fuel from his/her tank.

4)Jumper cables
In case your car battery goes dead.And of course,you should know how to use them.
6 to 8 feet in length and coated with at least 8-gauge rubber will be ideal to bring your car back to life or offering a charge to someone else.

5)Gloves
Protecting your hands is a must,no matter what the temperature.Get a sturdy mechanic gloves made of leather or a rubber and synthetic combination.

6)Tow rope
These can be invaluable to help get you out of a jam.To use the tow rope,you’ll need to find another car that’s able to tow yours to safety.

7)Warning triangles
Make certain other motorists can see you,day or night.

8 )Phone charger
As important as your phone itself.Add an adapter for the cigarette lighter if your car doesn’t have a usb port.

9)Water
In case of an emergency,they’ll provide sustenance until help arrives.

10)Extra clothes
For unexpected outdoor adventures,pack a rain jacket and at least one layer of clothing to keep you warm.

11)Umbrella
if you have to wait outside your car during rainy or sunny periods.

12)Basic tools
Always be sure to have at least three tools on hand
A screwdriver
Spanners to tighten up something that’s been loosened by vibration like your battery terminals.
A utility knife in case you ever need to cut yourself out of your seatbelt after an accident.

What other thing/s do you think should be added to the above lists?
Please Add.

Let me add item number unlucky 13, which is a spring-loaded center punch, that you can use to shatter your car window instantly, if your car plunges off a bridge into water, and starts sinking, thereby disabling the electric window wind motors, and TRAPPING the car occupants, if they are not prepared to break free with one of these versatile devices.

https://www.harborfreight.com/spring-loaded-center-punch-621.html

Remember, that if your car is sinking in deep water, and you find that the power windows will not work, or that you are unable to open the doors due to the outside water pressure, you will NOT be able to break the window by kicking it, or hitting it with whatever random metallic object you can find in that moment of panic.

With the center punch, you simply reach for the device, place it in contact with the closed window that is trapping you in the car, apply some pressure to trigger the center punch spring action, and then watch that window shatter like a wine glass, enabling you to swim to safety like James Bond.

If you do NOT know how to swim, and find yourself in a sinking car, with NO center punch available to break your window, then at the very least, take out your smart phone, log into Nairaland's car forum, and type me a final message to explain how very sorry you feel that you failed to buy that center punch, as I had urged you to do. Your final words will be recorded here for posterity.

The list is not complete without bribe money for the aforementioned $Police$especially
