SANDPOINT — With winter weather on its way, equipping vehicles for emergencies is a priority.

Drivers can never be certain that they won’t end up stuck on the side of the road with a blizzard on the way. AAA officials said there are items that can be kept in vehicles to help ensure the safest conditions should a driver run into challenging circumstances. 

A survival kit begins with an ice scraper, which many are likely to use on a daily basis during this time of year. A snow shovel is also advised. Collapsible shovels can be a good option for those with smaller vehicles, AAA officials said.
