Must-have items in your car in an emergency
By : Fazmina Samat
When driving in Qatar, whether as a taxi driver or a family car owner, being prepared for unexpected situations on the road is essential. Given the extreme heat in certain months, lengthy highways and ever-changing cityscapes, a well-equipped emergency kit can be a life saver! Here’s a rundown of must-have items to keep in your car to ensure safety and preparedness in any situation.
First Aid Kit
A basic first aid kit should be the first item in any emergency kit. Include essentials like bandages, and antiseptic tape. In Qatar, it is important to add supplies to treat heat burns-related issues, such as burn cream or electrolyte tablets, which are especially useful during the scorching summer months.
Jumper cables
Batteries can drain quickly in high heat, so a pair of jumper cables is crucial. Even if you aren’t in a remote location, a dead battery in the city can disrupt your day and those around you. Taxi drivers, especially can’t afford downtime, and jumper cables can help get you back on the road faster.
Fire extinguisher
Fires are rare but can happen due to overheating or electrical malfunctions. Keeping a small fire extinguisher rated for car use can be an invaluable precaution.
Multi-tool kit
Having a multi-tool with pliers, a screwdriver and other basic tools can be surprisingly helpful. A few basic tools may be enough to fix minor car issues or help with tasks like replacing windshield wipers.
A flashlight and extra batteries
A flashlight is handy for nighttime emergencies, whether you’re checking under the hood or signalling for help. Opt for a reliable, weatherproof flashlight and don’t forget extra batteries or a rechargeable model.
Dash camera
A dash cam can be invaluable for safety and legal protection on Qatar’s busy roads. Dash cams record footage of your drive, which can be helpful for insurance claims or police reports in case of an accident. For taxi drivers, a dash cam also offers an extra layer of security, as it records interactions with passengers and any unexpected incidents. Look for a model with night vision and high-definition recording for clear footage at all times.
