In Case Of Emergency

[BifferGaz]

I know we don't like to think about it but accidents can happen to anyone. Personally I ride alone alot and have often wondered if there was an effective and easilly accessible method for carrying Emergency Medical/Contact information around with me when on the bike. Having a bit of a trawl around on the net last night and came across the following:

Looks like a pretty good idea so ordered some.

Just thought it might be of interest to a few others out there.

Hi Gary

Have you ever come across the Crash card - it's recognised by paramedics. It's just a card you pop inside your helmet lining and you put a green dot on the helmet so paramedics etc know your details are there. They are often given out at bike shows etc.

I know what you mean I often ride alone and for that reason have a wallet in my inside pocket with my driving licence and details, it's always there just in case.

I had thought of 'inside the helmet' cards. However, paramedics are reluctant to remove the helmet immediately so thought having the information on the outside of the helmet a good idea.

I also try to remember to carry my wallet with me, but as I get older I become more absent minded.

Looks like a good idea if you can't have certain medication or have a condition.

I've seen a few guys with their blood group printed on their helmet and I even have a mate with it tattooed on his arm.
This is a complete waste of time as no medic will risk putting the wrong blood type into somebody based on 2nd hand info.
If it's essential they always use O negative.

That's handy as I'm O negative ; )

All my details hang on a dog tag around my neck when i ride.

Ah! But what if your details change...buy new tags? Simpler, and cheaper, to logon and alter them on line
