Checklist for the first aid box that I can every time I drive. I carry all of these in my car while I am on a trip. All of this is stored inside a semi transparent waterproof plastic container. I created this during my epic car drive in 2015.
Note: This is my first aid pack. Please get it verified by your doctor.
