This is not a perfect world, so accidents happen every day
and no matter how much time you have spent behind the wheel of your car, it can
break down at any given moment. As the days pass and streets get more crammed
up with traffic you can notice a definite increase in motor vehicle accidents.
The overflowing repair shops are evidence of this.
But that doesn’t stop you and your loved one from taking to
the roads, does it? It just means that you take extra measures to keep your
loved ones. This is the reason why you check your tires regularly, get our
brakes checked and tell your loved ones to drive safe.
In spite of all the safe keeping, when accidents happen or
your cars break down, few things are required to be done. In case of accidents,
the first and foremost thing to do is to ensure if you are injured and call for
help. The very next thing to do if you are not injured badly is to call for
help and get out of the car. It is advisable to grab the emergency kit from
your glove compartment and exit your vehicle. In this kit there will be emergency warning triangles. You should
set these warning triangles all around the crash site to make it visible to the
passing traffic and hence avoiding any more damage which might be caused by the
unseeing driver.
On the other hand, if
your car broke down in the middle of nowhere, then too it is a requirement to
place the warning triangles all around your broken car at a distance of 6
meters away from the car and then call for help.
Some warning triangles are collapsible and they come with a
swivel leg. These come in boxes and are easily available online or in your
nearest store. In some countries, it is mandatory to carry these warning
triangles in your vehicle while travelling.
So, for your own safety, the safety of your loved ones and
that of the people you pass by while on the road, carry your emergency kit with
you and make sure you do not forget about these inexpensive emergency warning triangles while you
are at it.
