Having the right things in your vehicle at all times ensures you are not caught up short. In Austin, TX, you need to consider the heat as well as the laws of the state of Texas. At Southwest Insurance Center, we are independent agents, providing personalized service and more choices. <\/p>\n

Your vehicle registration and insurance card<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Your registration in Texas is a sticker on your car window, so make sure you attach it. The insurance card or proof of financial responsibility should be in your glove box where it is safe. If you get in an accident or are pulled over for any reason, you will be in compliance with the law. <\/p>\n

Your driver’s license <\/strong><\/h2>\n

Most people carry their driver’s license in their wallet, and that will be in your pocket or purse. Keeping it safe is vital since it is a form of ID. <\/p>\n

Your auto club membership<\/strong><\/h2>\n

If you have a problem with your vehicle, you will need to carry your auto club membership card so that you have the phone number to call for assistance. This provides a degree of security, knowing you won’t be stranded without resources. <\/p>\n

A spare tire, jack, and can of Fix-a-Flat.<\/strong><\/h2>\n

It doesn’t take much to cause your tire to go flat. The first thing to try is Fix-a-Flat, and if that doesn’t work, you can change your flat tire, or you can call someone to come and change your tire, you do need to have the tire for them to put on. <\/p>\n
