In a Disaster: Have a Car Kit

During National Preparedness Month, the Los Angeles Fire Department reminds you to...

Keep a smaller version of your emergency supply kit in your vehicle, in case you are commuting or traveling when disaster strikes.

• Bottled water and non-perishable high energy foods, such as granola bars, raisins and peanut butter
• Flashlight and extra batteries
• Blanket
• Booster cables
• Fire extinguisher (A-B-C type)
• First aid kit and manual
• Maps
• Shovel
• Tire repair kit and pump
• Flares or other emergency marking devices

Tell us what you keep in your car kit!
