My biggest fear during everyday driving to and from work or around town ect.. is getting caught in really bad snowstorms or freezing tempatures and thats what Im prepared for to get home on foot if neccesary. I keep a collapsable bucket shovel in my trunk and a medium sized hockey bag in there as well. Inside the bag is socks, boots, extreme weather gloves, hat, gortex jacket with hood, sweatshirt, longsleeve turtle neck, 1 pair of jeans, 1 pair of Snow pants, Flashlight. I also have in my front seat area a solid folding knife ( Gerber 06 with window punch on handle ), water bottle, a case of high calorie/energy protein bars, lighter, matches, and lock box with a cable lock to attach under my seat for my carry gun + 1 mag. This is my everyday year round car gear. After reading this thread I should get some type of first aid kit and map in there.
