This Small, 3-in-1 Car Safety Accessory Could Save Your Life as a Driver or Uber Rider-and It's Only $20 at Amazon

"This compact device is a flashlight with five built-in safety functions designed for real-life emergencies. It features three light modes-a wide-beam floodlight, a long-distance spotlight, and a flashing roadside hazard beacon-plus a window breaker and seatbelt cutter built into either side. AAA calls escape tools like this "a lifesaver" and recommends carrying one in every vehicle, even when you're riding in an Uber."

"The five-in-one flashlight runs on three AA batteries. It's smaller than your forearm, measuring about eight inches tall and weighing eight ounces. It fits inside a glove compartment, center console, or door pockets-and that's where it should be kept, where you can easily and quickly reach it, instead of in the trunk. It's designed to be so tough that it wouldn't shatter if a car were to run over it, the brand claims,"

A compact emergency flashlight combines five safety functions: a wide-beam floodlight, a long-distance spotlight, a flashing roadside hazard beacon, a seatbelt cutter, and a window breaker. The device runs on three AA batteries, measures about eight inches tall, and weighs eight ounces, allowing storage in glove compartments, center consoles, or door pockets for quick access. The tool is designed to resist being crushed by a vehicle and to be waterproof for use in rain or submerged-car scenarios. AAA recommends carrying an escape tool in every vehicle, including rideshares. The seatbelt cutter uses a plastic-hook protected sharp edge and a pointed alloy hammer breaks windows at bottom corners.
