Go Gear: Safety accessories for your car

Don't lose sleep over safety

Car safety has come a long way in a short space of time but in addition to the array of technologies installed by manufacturers, there's also a few safety gizmos that can help save lives. Such as the Anti Sleep Pilot, a little device that sits on your dash and cleverly monitors your fatigue levels and alerts you if you're falling asleep.

A real belter

Even though you're now not going to fall asleep at the wheel, accidents still do happen. That's where the CG Lock comes in. It's a seat belt add-on that locks your belt tight and acts like a harness to improve safety, posture, vehicle control, comfort, off-roading performance and even your track lap times.

Make sure you're kitted out

No one wants to be in that broken-down car on the hard shoulder of the motorway or even be involved in a smash, but it's still smart to be prepared. And you can't be more prepared than if you've got a Rolson Car Emergency Kit in your boot. Wrench, jump leads, air compressor, safety vest, tow rope; it's got it all.
