What is Car First Aid Kit?

Some countries require a kit in every car; others only recommend one. Where required, the contents often follow a national standard. Sterile items have expiry dates. First aid training helps people use the kit effectively.

How it works

It provides what is needed for first aid until emergency services arrive.

Why it matters for your car

Check expiry dates regularly and replace used items. Keep it where it can be reached quickly, not under heavy luggage.
