Engine failures and flat tires happen all the time. Of course we all hope we are not in that category but I’ve been on the side of the road in the past with a flat. Thankfully for me, it was daytime and not a very busy street. Being stuck on the side of the road is hazardous enough but the chances of a tragic roadside accident happening during the night is a lot higher and especially with these shorter winter days. You can protect yourself, your family, and your vehicle with the SofAlert Road Safety Kit.
The road safety kit obviously won’t stop you from getting stuck on the side of the road but it will give you the tools needed to make sure you are visible to any approaching traffic from as far away as a mile. It’s estimated that each year, over 4,000 pedestrians are killed and over 69,000 are injured in traffic accidents in the USA alone. A substantial number of the deceased happen to have been changing a flat tire during conditions with low visibility.
The SofAlert Road Safety Kit comes with a Rubber Pad for knee support and protection. This rubber pad will protect your knee and pants/trousers against the uneven surfaces of the road, dirt, gravel, mud, snow, and moisture. The kit also includes an Electric LED Safety Light which is shatterproof and water resistant. The light features two different flashing patterns and is visible from over a mile away. In ‘flashing mode’, the light has over 100 hours of battery life. You can put the light on the road as a safety flare or attach it to any metallic surface.
There is no safety without a Safety Vest. The custom design safety vest features high visibility reflective tape to help other drivers see where you are. If you have a flat tire, chances are you will be getting your hands dirty. Thankfully, this kit does come with Safety Gloves which will keep you hands safe from not only dirt and dust but also keep you from getting abrasions and scrapes. And finally, the entire kit is stored in a Storage Reflective Bag which can also be used as an emergency warning flag. Or you can simply use it to store additional items.
The SofAlert Road Safety Kit is available for $34.
