The groundhog Punxsutawney Phil predicted six more weeks of winter, and the cold hasn’t relented yet. The harsh conditions and continued potential for sub-zero temperatures can make driving in Indy dangerous.

This means it’s extremely important to have an emergency kit in the car — especially if you live in the northern regions of Indiana that receive the most snow. Don’t think you’d ever use the emergency kit? Just remember the recent crisis in the South where thousands of people were gridlocked on highways for hours due to severe weather. Hopefully nothing like that will happen again. However, it’s always smart to be prepared.

Below are a few of the supplies that Ready.gov recommends keeping in the car trunk at all times:

  • Non-perishable foods that contains protein — nuts, protein bars, etc…
  • Water
  • Sand for traction
  • Flashlight with extra batteries
  • Warm jacket, gloves, and extra socks
  • Blankets or sleeping bags
  • Jumper cables
  • Basic first aid kit
