A container with a wide base is more stable than a narrow or top-heavy cup. Keepingit in a secure cup holder can reduce the likelihood of tipping during turns or sudden braking.
The container should also be kept away from children and pets traveling in the vehicle. Although table salt is an ordinary household product, an open cup can create a mess if disturbed.
Drivers may choose to cover the container with a breathable material that allows moisture to enter while helping keep the salt from spilling. The covering should remain securely attached and should not prevent air from reaching the contents.
Before driving, it is sensible to confirm that the container remains stable. A moisture-control method should never create a new safety concern inside the cabin.
