While the majority of Winnipeggers who spoke with Global News said they have a few things in their cars — from winter gear to snow kits to gloves and tuques — most are missing some key item.

CAA Manitoba says having a roadside emergency kit is like having an insurance policy.

The company suggests having basic items like food, water, candles and blankets in your vehicle as well as a colourful piece of fabric that could be used to flag someone down in the event of an emergency.

A full list of what to put into an emergency kit is available on the CAA Manitoba website.
