10 Must haves in your car!

We normally spend a lot of time in our cars. So it is only natural to make your car more convenient.
Here's the list of "Must Haves":

1. Sunglasses.
They are great at protecting against glare while driving. When driving with the windows down, wind and dusts are unwanted distractions to deal with. Sunglasses offer protection from these elements.

2. Bottle of water
A bottle of water, preferably 1.5 litres, will save you when your car overheats. With some water,
you can top up the radiator and rush to your nearest workshop.

3. Parking Coupons
Not many parking spaces have the electronic barriers installed yet. Jaunts to Serangoon Gardens or Geylang for gastronomical treats often require parking payment through coupons. Parking without coupons will result in a $6 to $50 fine. Those caught for cheating by using used coupons can face fines up to $1000.

4. Pen and Paper
In the event of an accident, it helps to sketch how it happened. It is also helpful to write down what the other party says - especially if there is a private agreement earlier on.

5. Accident kit

Such a kit helps ensure that you are ready to respond appropriately by providing step by step instructions. Proper reporting procedures can then be properly documented.


6. Compact battery jump starters

Being stranded with a dead battery can be very annoying to a car driver. But with a jump starter, you can just hook it up and then start your car.


7. Digital Air compressor

Most of us drivers have encountered a nail in our car's tyres at some point in life. While most cars come with either a spare tyre or a repair kit, not many have digital air compressors as part of the package. They are easier to operate as opposed to a traditional air pump.


8. Spare Cash card
9. Wet wipes,
10. Spare change

The last three being so obvious - that we need no elaboration on. : )
