Minimizing travel risk in cars

I have been meaning to post this link to Martha Stewart's website, that outlines what items you should carry in your trunk that increase your safety and decrease your risk.  There's also a helpful video.

And, from the first chapter of my own book, here's a photo of the trunk of my own car in terms of the emergency pack of supplies I carry.  In addition to the "Evac Pack" that I carry, extras include water and water bottle, zippered tool kit, hiking boots and extra wipes.  I've also got an athletic bag in the back that includes an extra clothing and a fanny pack first aid kit.
