A Car First Aid Kit Gives Peace Of Mind

Now don't deny it - your car trunk hasn't been sorted for ages ? Especially if you have a station wagon or UTE .. we can all be so lazy dumping stuff in the back of the car. We all do it but if you're the exception then this could be even more reason to take some action that I want to put to you.
A couple of years ago, after the guilt trip from the wife and friends I realised the trunk was a mess .. shabby old clothes and tennis raquets, bits and bobs of no use to anyone! except the Salvos ! So oneboring Sunday afternoon I finally had some spare time to invest and make a start on the mess.
Wow were we in a for a surprise and so was the rubbish man when he turned up! However, cut to the chase, what surprised me was that I did not have a Car First Aid Kit in the back of our family car ... a wagon that we all use every day .. long trips short trips .. picnics BBQ's you name it .. we really do cross-multi use the car for different purposes.
Well you know how when you have a job to do for an hour two two you can really set your mind off la la thinking about things! This is what we were doing .. and it scared me to think 'Manwhat if' ...what if we were to have had a serious first aid situation or urgently needed the right First Aid Supplies at the right time?
I basically realized that we had got off scott free all this time .. call it luck .. more like playing dangerously me thinks! I promised my self from then on I vowed to always have a First Aid Kit fixed in the back of the car. Not simply take it in and out of the house when we went on longer trips .. we all know what would happen there. Yes we get very lazy sometimes and always think we will get around to it.
Now I can tell you I drive with so much more ease .. knowing that at any time in 'any' emergency I have at least some really good First Aid conetents immediately at hand to handle a multitude of scenarios.
We very frequently go surfing or away for the weekto our beach cottage .. which at times means I can be so far from any services.. I love to 'def' get away! In fact there had been the odd time when a friendly person or surfer had needed some scissors or a bandage and it is so rewarding to help .. especially when we are a long way from assistance.
The Survival First Aid Kit has definitely been the best investment I have made my families safety and protection .. even if we hopefully 'never' use it for anything serious I am so thankful that we are always prepared.
What is sensible about the Survival First Aid Kit is it sooo small and so neat .. when we emptied my side compartments in the trunk heh presto we found the perfect spot to keep safely the Car First Aid Kit .. We know where it is and so does everyone in our household.
I even took the some time to show the kids exactly what it is and what is inside the kit .. they are old enough now to fully understand how important it is .. and with that increases their awareness of danger which is a great thing in our mind.
So if you have that guilt trip moment when you really should clean out the boot and throw out all of that garbage .. then take that opportunity to permantley include a Car First Aid Kit in the family car .. I guarantee you'll drive your car with a new sense of pride .. much so than if you've just washed the car! And heh you might even just increase the value of your car! It's all good!
