There are a multitude of these cards, tags, systems around, but all the courses that I have done, the Paramedics etc who do the courses say that they dont go looking for these devices. This includes looking in a phone for ICE contacts.

Be a waste of time me having one of these as I keep my ID etc. in the top case while riding.

This one is different Brock as it has a red dot sticker on the right side of the helmet which states "Dont remove helmet id card inside" - This warns no one but Paramedics to remove helmets - The card is inside top of helmet with medical details, blood type, allergies, medical conditions etc.
You are right  - we don't go thru phones or wallets or vehicles looking for ID's as we are too busy saving ur life. In this case this info is right there as we remove ur helmet safely while we protect your spine.  :thumb

A good idea and I started to apply online but unfortunately riders in ACT are excluded.

I applied and it went through from SA OK.     :thumbsup
This will complement a set of "Dog Tags" that I wear when riding that show  ID and NOK Contacts.  In any case, coppers will always work out who you are from bike rego and property etc  and with a couple of phone calls, while the ambos concentrate on keeping you alive.

StinkyPete, you're fortunate to live in SA. "ACT" does not appear in the drop down list of states and territories when completing address information.

I will however give some to the RTE Co-Ordinators for collection at RTE's and carry some with us to events.

I also now applied. Scary when answering how long have you have had your license (49 years) and when the dates of your accidents are 20 years before the dates listed

My accident was in 1980 ish 

Cant remember any accident when I wasnt injured, only had one where I was.
