While cleaning the Schuberth C2 today, I was reminded that with German efficiency it has a little weatherproof pocket on the side, containing a slip of paper with contact and medical details in case of emergency. Good idea, but there's hardly any space and updating is awkward. So the idea came into my head of substituting or at least adding an SD card (standard or micro). Even for helmets without a pocket, maybe something similar could be taped on, eg behind the visor in the dead space near the hinge? Or am I just being daft? Might need to be part of an organised plan? Anyhoo, back to the day job.

Stick the information on a piece of paper in the lining. I believe if you have a green dot on the side of your helmet. The emergency services will be alerted to the information within.

The green dot is part of the crash card scheme.

The SD card or the USB Emergency information products are all very well but we have no way of reading them on ambulances! Crash card or pen and paper is good for us. ICE number in your phone is also a good idea as long as the phone isn't locked



Traditional dog tags will work.

My phone would be confusing then - I do a bit of work for a company called Ice Training, and I list my contacts by 'Company, First name, Last name' . So there are a good few ICE numbers, and none of them are my NOK.

I hope when I'm injured, the ambulance will take care of my life, and do not want to read any SD card with pictures or my phone.

If I am saved and in the hospital, people can still search my documents, read and call my family.

Probably the best way to go - you're unlikely to loose them in an accident, and they don't get in the way or anything.

They'll hold enough info to list any severe allergies, and a contact number.  You almost don't need a name on there, as the person receiving any call will be able to say his name is "...."

Been wearing mine for a few days now, mainly to see if they annoyed me. Don't even know I have them. Good for overseas trips. and for £4.00, worth it

I have used dog tags since I got knocked off my push bike.

I have a friend who is a paramedic and the only things they look at is if its obvious to them and they can read it.

The paramedics or the people at the hospital don't have any way of reading any USB or sd card so don't get sucked into those £20 usb things.

These are the ones I got.....http://www.ebay.co.u...=item20b1aab83a

Got talking to a couple of Emergency services bikers at the Bexhill Moto gymkhana this evening, and they rate the green dot scheme.

I got their last one. :)

Further prob. with electronic data (according to my new-found friends in the ambulance service) is the fear of malware.

Been using ICE now for about three years and the green dot with a card in my helmet for two.
Both were so well publicised I though most everybody was using them.
Both excellent ideas.
