Automotive Safety

Not all trips go as intended, but a little bit of planning ahead can alleviate stress when you find yourself stuck on the side of, or even off road. Many drivers keep flashlights, tools, a spare tire, and jump cables readily available in case of an emergency. An essential item that many don’t consider are warning triangles. The Erickson Emergency Triangle Kit comes with three reflective triangles that when placed according to safety guidelines can increase visibility when stuck roadside. This can prevent a collision from oncoming traffic. Kinetic Recovery Ropes are another great item to have handy in case you find yourself stuck off road. Also known as a snatch rope, the Erickson Kinetic Recovery uses the energy of motion to create a slingshot effect to rescue your vehicle from being stuck in snow, mud, or sand.
