Get Your Car Ready For Winter Weather

(Richmond)- With the weather getting colder and more people traveling on the road for the holidays, the Virginia Department of Emergency Management recommends emergency kits for our cars. Spokesman Jason Elmore says things like jumper cables, a first aid kit, a flashlight and wipes. If your vehicle breaks down, road flares or reflectors, things like that so people can see you on the side of the roadway. The Virginia Department of Emergency Management also recommends having snacks, water, a blanket, and an extra pair of clothes in your kit, in case your body temperature changes.
