Where is the car first aid kit?

Car first aid kit is located in the trunk. The kit includes: triangular bandage, elastic head cover, emergency blanket, buckle-type tourniquet, medical gloves, hemostatic pad, disposable instant cold pack, band-aid, iodine swab, isolation mask, motion sickness medicine, gauze, as well as warning triangle and tire changing tools. The car first aid kit is a package of medical emergency equipment and medicines equipped on the vehicle, which can be used for self-rescue in case of casualties caused by traffic accidents, effectively reducing traffic fatalities. Things to pay attention to after a car accident: 1. Don't panic, stay calm; 2. Perform self-rescue immediately and call emergency services; 3. Cut off the vehicle's power supply; 4. Protect the scene.
I always keep a car first aid kit in the trunk, especially on the fixed rack at the rear, which doesn't take up much space and avoids being blocked by everyday items. Since the kit contains gauze, bandages, and disinfectants, keeping it in a fixed position prevents it from rolling around during emergency braking. I also recommend not placing it under the seat or in the glove box unless it's a small car for quick access. Additionally, remember to check the expiration date; generally, it should be updated once a year to prevent the medicines from expiring. For extra safety during road trips, consider keeping an additional kit in the center console.
