What does everybody think of this initiative by Hornsby Council? Personally I think its a good idea... it allows Emergency workers to know who it is they are working on if they are unconscious etc and allows next of kin etc to be contacted perhaps quicker than might otherwise be the case... http://www.hornsby.nsw.gov.au/community/common-enquiries/traffic-and-transport/motorcycle-crash-card
Most of us use to ware dog tags.... reminds me I have to find mine again dont like the idea of sticking them in the helmet, in a lot of cases the helmet wont be removed (or shouldnt be removed)until its determined what spinal neck injuries if any has been sustained.....
I have one and think it is a good idea. There is also a sticker on the outside (right front) to let ambo's know the card is inside.
I got these for me and my husband....and never used them. My hesitation was how universal the training to look for the card might be. It's supported by NSW emergency services, but is it part of mandatory training for them? Not sure. Actually...I know a firey and a paramedic...probably should ask them. 6 years ago I got a Road ID when I was spending more time on unmotorised bikes. It's on my wrist, permanently. I never take it off. It has my full name, year of birth, contact numbers for my husband and mother and my sulfur allergy. It's gotta be more visible than something inside a helmet. Unless I lose my hand. In which case, I probably have bigger fish to fry. When I checked their site they also do necklaces now and things to put on your fitbits/garmins or shoes.
