I alway carry my "jump" and O2 kits. I also have the DAN slates on an O-ring in the pocket by my stethoscope and sphygmomanometer. The kits stay in my car and go on every dive. With the exception of minor punctures and marine stings and a DCI they have been used at traffic accidents and a heart attack. AED is my next addition to the jump kit.
And yes I carry this kit on dive boats. Never had one question my bringing the gear along.
The equipment and training are things we along hope we never need to use but if you dive (or drive) long enough I promise you will need to use both, so get trained (DAN and the PADI EFR courses are excellent starting points) and get geared up.
Is it bulky? Yes, but worth it.
