ICE (In Case of Emergency)

[Jon_W]

Just a thought, but you could just write your ICE details on a bit of paper, and then keep it in your wallet/purse?

That's what I have.... is simple, dosen't run out of battery, dosen't require some stranger to access my phone and is secure...

I think there it too much technology at times..... :P

You can also get the dogtags.
You can get a USB stick with all your medical history on it in multiple languages and/or simply get an engraved one.
Details on a piece of paper could work just as well but not as resilient to water etc.

I have an engraved dogtag that hangs round the neck. Makes sense to me. Keep it in my helmet at home so when i go out on the bike, i cant forget it

Certainly used to be the case that the emergency services will ignore any reference to blood groups etc, just in case the tags/paper doesn't belong to the wearer. They will always test blood groups before giving anything potentially lethal by IV. The most important part is the phone number of relative/next of kin etc - more for their sake than the riders.

most of you probably already know about having ICE infront of some people names in your contact list on your phone just in case you are in an accident but i have just found an app for it on the iphone :P
i know a lot of you have iphones and with the app you can put in 3 peoples names and numbers as well as you blood type and known allregies!
it is a free app - just make sure you dont get the american 1! the pictures for it is a red background with a white cross with ICE written in the cross

Don't have an i-phone, i-pod or i-pad.
Blood type-Dont care what goes into my Black Pudding and allergies-allergic to Mondays & Apple products ;D

I had the app on my blackberry but it's useless because you have to put my password in to get to the ICE app. I've stuck with a bit of paper in my wallet and an ICE dog tag.
