Emergency Roadside LED Flares


Nobody wants to think about being stranded on the side of the road, especially at night.


Sadly, flat tires happen and vehicles break down so you should be prepared to let other drivers know when you're on the side of the road. Using flares is the way to go!


These LED flares are the perfect addition to any safety and tool kit you keep in your RV and will let others know there's an emergency nearby.
