Nobody likes traffic jams, especially not in winter. But what is usually just an annoying increase in driving time can quickly turn into a real disaster. This week, too, numerous drivers had to spend the night in their car and deal with the icy temperatures. This self-experiment shows how quickly this can become life-threatening.
What drivers should always have with them now
What many of us do not have in mind is how quickly each of us can get into this dangerous situation.

It is therefore particularly important to have emergency equipment in the car just for this case – in the video you can see what you should always have with you.
