Always keep a roll of two of electrical insulation tapes in your car. When you have a burst radiator hose while on a journey, you can use the insulation tape to wrap round the hose tightly. This should be able to allow you to reach the nearest help. You will be amazed how strong these tapes are. Always have a plastic gallon container in your car boot filled with water for replenishing your radiator and also for washing during 'emergency' cases.

wrong wrong wrong have you ever tried putting tape on a hose that had a leak it does not stick because of the antifreeze even if you tried wiping it down forget it the best way is to loosen the radiator cap and watch your temp gauge and get it replaced asap.

sounds good but. how about just looking after your car. if you get it serviced regularly any good technician should spot that hose. well before it gets to the burst stage.
but it is a very good idea to keep water in the boot just incase and to change the bottle about every 6 months to keep it sort of clean incase you need to use it to wash!
