5 Key Items to Have In Your Car for Summer

With summer just around the corner, drivers need to prepare for the hot weather. Drivers, it’s time to take out those raincoats, rain boots, and umbrellas in the back of your cars from the spring and substitute them for summer items! Here are the top five essential items you should keep in your car throughout the summer.

Sunglasses

Do you ever get in the car and realize you can’t see? With the hot, glaring sun shining through your windshield throughout the summer, it is important to always have a pair of sunglasses in your car! It’ll make it easier and safer for you to drive… plus you’ll look cooler. 

Sunscreen 

Sunscreen is so important for your skin and without it, the intense UV rays from the sun have harmful effects on your skin. Having a bottle of sunscreen in your car will help you stay protected whenever and wherever you go this summer. 

Water 

If you are driving near or far, it is always important to stay hydrated. Even if you are using the AC while driving, having a water bottle is necessary during the hot summer days. You don’t want to be stuck in hot summer traffic wishing you had a bottle of water! 

Towels 

To stay cool in the summer, you are more than likely to swim in a pool, ocean, lake, or any body of water. It is always smart to keep an extra towel laying around in your car to dry you off. Throughout the summer months, the weather is typically unpredictable with a chance for random thunderstorms and sun showers. Having a towel handy in your car will be beneficial so you stay dry! 

Phone Charger 

Phone chargers are a must in the summer! With the hot weather and the sun warming up your phone, your battery runs low and even has the risk to overheat. You always want to keep a charger handy in your car so your phone never dies, in case of an emergency.
