I carry my wallet and mobile with me whenever I'm on the bike. The wallet has my license in it, along with donor card, the moby has an entry under ICE - which contains a list of people to call.

Not sure why I'd need to carry anything else.

I wear my issued identity tags.

As far as I am aware not every Ambulance carry's a laptop to plug the electronic tag into. It is a good idea, but what is wrong with reading something instantly rather than finding a way of reading it electronically?

I think they are a good idea, but I hear that not all ambulance crews (if they have a laptop) will use them because of the risk of viruses etc.

I always carry my licence and have I.C.E on the phone....

Yep same here. Considered getting some ID tags but they'd just annoy me.

I have written ICE details for two people (Lily & Parents) on my computer along with details of insurance company and recovery details. I have then printed off four copies and folded them neatly so the details are shown on each side......I have them situated.....

1. In the inside pocket of the leather jacket I commute in.
2. In the inside pocket of my "fun" summer leather jacket.
3. In my rucksack.
4. In my wallet.

I think that covers me enough.

I have I.C.E. on my phone and wear a name tag with all my details, infact in my last acciedent its what the police used to get my details. Meant the paramedics could get on with treating me and police didn't have to bother me.

I looked at these briefly but I now have to wear a Medical ID thing anyway because I have Addison's Disease and so if anything happened they would need to know about medication etc. However, I am told that they will look at any jewellary you are wearing to try find any information, so I guess the helmet sticker is kind of unnecessary.

On my halvarssons jacket there is a clear pocket on the forearm. All my details are carried in there. I also keep my clockcard (cause its convenient at 5.30am) in there, as its got my name and my fugly mug on it.

I've got ICE details in my phone and in my wallet, seems to cover it, they'll look there first. Mine should say something like "I am a diabetic, if I'm unconscious please don't test my blood glucose levels because if they're too low and that caused my crash your test is admissable in court and I'll lose my licence. Just give me some sugar on the offchance"
