TIRE TRACTION MAT
A tire traction mat comprising: a main panel and a plurality of spikes. The main panel includes: a top surface; a bottom surface; a front edge portion; a back edge portion; and two side edge portions. Wherein the plurality of spikes are spaced from one another, attached to the bottom surface of the main panel, adapted to releasably engage a supporting surface, and increase friction between the main panel and the supporting surface. Wherein the tire traction mat is adapted to be placed upon a supporting surface and provide a frictional surface for a tire of a vehicle to roll upon. A tire traction kit is also disclosed comprising: a tire traction mat container; a closing member; and at least one tire traction mat.

ROAD SURFACE TRACTION SYSTEM
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.
A VEHICULAR LADDER
A vehicular ladder including a body comprising a first plastic and one or more first teeth arranged on the body, wherein the one or more first teeth include a second plastic that is different to the first plastic, and the body is moulded around portions of the one or more first teeth.

Traction assist device
A traction assist device for mobilizing vehicles stuck in surfaces such as snow and ice includes a panel that has a top face, which is coarse. The panel is flexible, such that the panel is manipulable from an extended configuration into a rolled configuration. A plurality of grasps is coupled to and extends transversely from a bottom face of the panel. The grasps are configured to penetrate into surfaces, such as snow and ice, when the panel is positioned on the surface and a tire of a vehicle is positioned on the top face of the panel. The grasps retain the panel in a fixed position. The top face of the panel is configured to grip the tire, such that traction is supplied of the vehicle.

VEHICLE TRACTION MAT
A vehicle traction mat for use to extricate a vehicle stuck on a slippery road surface is provided. The traction mat comprises at least a main mat segment having a plurality of surface cleats, knobs, and knob cleats on a road-facing surface thereof. The cleats and knobs provide traction between the traction mat and the slippery surface. The traction mat may be provided with edge mat segments foldably connected to opposite ends of the main mat segment. The traction mat may have cleats, knobs, and knob cleats on the tire-facing surface thereof.
