When it's late or I am in the car is there a proven way to get bottom lip stronger for embouchure and vibrato?

the pencil trick is a trumpet thing...but is perfect for this application

put the end of a pencil between your lips(do yourself a favor and choose the butt end!!)

make it stick out perfectly horizontally

...much harder than it sounds

if you want to get fancy make it go up and down....but in a controlled manner....
