Tip Number One: Perform Travel Car Care Before Driving Home for the Holidays PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 20 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- As many plan to travel for the holidays and put in countless hours in the car running from store to store buying gifts, it's easy to forget how important it is to stay safe while driving. Pep Boys' (NYSE:PBY) car care experts are here to help with their roadside emergency guide, which can easily be found at http://www.pepboys.com/ in the "Car Care Corner" section under "Car Care Basics." The Pep Boys online guide contains a complete list of items to keep in your car for any roadside emergency. If you don't want to buy all the items separately, Pep Boys offers an easy and convenient pre-packaged emergency kit that contains all the items you need. The online road safety guide also instructs drivers on what items to keep in the car to stay safe this time of year. With one of the most common roadside emergencies being a flat tire, tire sealant is a great item to keep handy. This temporary solution can get you to a safe place to wait for help or to change your tire. If you get stranded, keeping your car visible to oncoming traffic with road flares is critical; road flares and reflective triangles are great items to keep in your trunk to provide an added measure of safety.
