  1. Everything You Need to Know About Common Roadside Emergencies

  2. One must always be careful while on the road, as you never know when you might get stuck along the side of the road because of car trouble. Roadside emergencies can happen at any time- it could be a flat tire, dead battery or overheating engine- either way it certainly can lead to panic if you are not prepared for them. If not dealt with properly, roadside emergencies can turn into fatal accidents.

  3. It’s advised that you prepare ahead of time for the most common roadside emergencies, that way, you’ll know what exactly to do if your vehicle ever sputters to a stop or if your tire blows out on the highway or something else. Follow these instructions to have much more of an idea of what to do if any of these emergencies were to happen to you:

  4. Changing a flat tire- This is one of the most common roadside emergencies. It could be due to a leaking valve, a thing that the tire ran over, or a sudden blowout on the road. It is advised that you keep a well-functioning spare wheel and a jack in the trunk. Overheated engine- If you have an overheated engine (which you can very easily tell as you see smokes starting to flood out from under the hood), turn it off right away. First and foremost, open your car bonnet to cool the engine down. Check the engine oil levels and the coolant levels. If there is a leak, you’ll need to take your car to an experienced mechanic for repairs.

  5. Other common roadside emergencies include 1. Running out of gas 2. Cracked windshield 3. Locked out of your car 4. Car accidents (due to mechanical issues related to the engine, transmission or brakes) 5. Bogged vehicle Dead battery- Battery failure is one of the most common incidents. Besides keeping the radio and the air conditioning turned on when the car is not moving being a major reason for the car’s battery getting drained, other reasons for a dead battery include low maintenance, not starting your vehicle for long periods of time, and not keeping the terminals of battery clean.

  6. The key is to having the right tools and knowledge to face and overcome a roadside emergency efficiently. Build a simple vehicle emergency kit containing items like flashlight, first aid kit, jump cables, universal lug wrench, antifreeze/coolant, engine oil, spare tire, tire jack, tire pressure gauge, note pad and pen, gloves, owner manual, food and water, folding emergency safety triangle, and a blanket.
