A vehicle traction mat in the form of an elongated body member having a top surface with protruding upright gripper members or cleats for engagement by a vehicle wheel or tire includes supplemental openings in the top surface thereof for receiving additional or replacement gripper members and further includes a storage receptacle also located on the top surface for containing various accessories which may be required during use of the device such as cable ties for attaching a plurality of traction mats together to create a roadway, ground spikes for attaching the traction mat to the ground, and the aforementioned additional or replacement gripper members capable of being attached to the top of the traction mat as and when desired.

A vehicle traction jack that functions as a traction mat platform, ramp, and vehicle jack to assist a vehicle's tire when a tire is stuck in a rut, hole, or some sort of terrain or weather condition such as sand, gravel, dirt, mud, or snow is disclosed. The traction jack comprises a first plate and second plate, a hinge assembly, and a removable center jack mechanism. The first and second plates can extend to a partially-opened or fully-opened position forming a ramp and traction mat platform. The removable center jack mechanism attaches to first plate and second plate via pins. Easily stored in a vehicle at all times, a single user can use the traction jack to help move any type of vehicle's tire.

The present application discloses a vehicle rescue device, a rescue plate and a support plate, and relates to the field of cross-country equipment. The vehicle rescue device includes a first rescue plate and a second rescue plate, at least one end of the first rescue plate is provided with a first connecting portion, at least one end of the second rescue plate is provided with a second connecting portion, and the first connecting portion is detachably connected with the second connecting portion.

A vehicle is disclosed for providing increased friction between the wheels of a vehicle and the ground. An example vehicle includes an anti-lock brake system, inertial sensor, and wheels. The vehicle also includes a computing system configured to deploy aggregate to an area proximate the wheels, responsive to determining that a vehicle traction value is below a first threshold. The computing system is also configured to, after deploying the aggregate, deploy a friction mat to an area proximate the wheels, responsive to determining that the vehicle traction value remains below a second threshold.
