If you’re busy checking off people on your holiday gift list, you may be looking for gifts that can help your loved ones stay safe. Practical and thoughtful gifts that can save a life or can help prevent an accident or injury are always appreciated. If you have any drivers or car owners on your list, you can help them stay safe by giving the following gifts:
1) Gift certificates for tune-ups and other car services.
Cars that are in good mechanical condition are more likely to be able to stop suddenly and to be able to handle a range of weather conditions. A properly maintained car may help a driver avoid an accident. If you know someone who has a used car, especially, giving them gift certificates for tune-ups and other maintenance services can help them keep their car at its safest.
2) Rearview camera systems.
If you know anyone with an SUV, truck, or any larger vehicle with many blind spots, rearview camera systems are a great choice. They also make a great gift for anyone on your list who has small children. Rearview camera systems allow vehicle owners to see behind their car more clearly, preventing back-over accidents in Hollywood and other communities. With a rearview camera system, drivers can see whether there is a small child or pet directly behind the car – something they may not be able to see with their rearview mirrors alone.
3) Driving classes.
If you have a teen on your shopping list, consider buying them driving classes. If they are new to driving or just getting their driver’s license, driving classes can help them get their license more easily and give them the educational base they need to avoid car accidents. Even if you know a young driver who has already been through driver education classes, buying them some extra classes can help them get more one-on-one lessons from a qualified instructor, which can help them become stronger and safer motorists.
4) Racing classes.
Racing classes are great choice for young drivers or for any driver. Not only are racing classes an adrenaline filled adventure, but they may also help drivers hone their skills behind the wheel and become more comfortable in the driver seat. In many cases, racing classes include a focus on safety, making them a great choice for anyone who needs to learn a little bit more about staying safe on the road.
5) Emergency roadside kits.
Emergency kits are great gift to give, whether you assemble them yourself or buy premade systems. These kits contain everything needed in case of a car breakdown or accident. A good kit contains basic first aid items, a blanket, contact information and insurance information, a flashlight, and anything else needed in a car-related emergency.
