When my husband retired they gave him a can with a horn attached, a rear view mirror also attaced. A basket with toilet tissue, preperation H, Pepto Bismol, denture cleaner,
eye glass cleaner, & a magnifying glass.

Don't forget a small roll of toilet paper squashed flat: for those occasional mistakes when out and about.
