My ID gave EMTs everything they needed!

I have been an avid cyclist for years. Recently, I saw an ad for Road ID in Bicycling magazine. I started wearing the ANKLE ID about six months ago. I put my name, where I live, phone numbers, drug allergies, my medical condition and blood type on my ID. I didn't expect to ever need it, but I felt it was a good thing to have.

Recently, I was on a club ride in central Tucson with a large group of riders when I hit a rock in the road and went skidding out of control. Luckily I kept thinking to keep my head up and away from traffic.

I was very much disoriented from my injuries, which included a deep laceration of my left arm and a fractured right metacarpal bone. The EMT's were asking me medical questions and trying to ascertain the extent of my injuries. I was able to point to my ANKLE ID to give them the information they needed.

I was lucky that I was with a large group of friends. Having ID, however, saved them from trying to guess at what to tell the medical personnel, and saved me from giving them the wrong information while in severe pain and shock. I am back cycling again, and now have 2 Road ID's in case I lose one! I will never ride without my Road ID.

"My identification / medical cards were illegible"
I wish I had a Road ID last summer during a rainy century ride. I was riding along when suddenly I slipped on some train tracks going about 22 mph. By the time I was taken to the nearest hospital, I was soaked, filthy, and in mild shock. I carried my medical cards, and other forms of identification, but they had... - Elizabeth T, West Hartford, CT Continue Reading

"My Road ID got me immediate treatment"
I am a professional duathlete living in the western suburbs of Chicago. I was out on a training ride, going about 20 mph through a neighborhood that is known to be "cyclist friendly". Suddenly a driver – on a cell phone – backed right out of a parking space in front of me. I hit the back of the SUV and proceeded to bounce... - Guy P, Westmont, IL Continue Reading

"I was left lying in the middle of the road"
Long story short, I was out for a Friday ride, when a truck blew through a stop sign, throwing me in the air and destroying my newly built up Cannondale CAAD9 road bike. The driver didn't even stop to check on me. He fled the scene leaving me in the middle of the road. Luckily a passer by came to the scene, and... - Damon A, Indianapolis, IN Continue Reading

"I heard the EMTs access my emergency profile"
Well, that moment we "road bikers" dread, happened to me on Saturday. To make a long story short, my back wheel got caught in a railroad track as I was crossing it at 18 mph, and...you can guess what happened next. After that, I regained awareness only twice- once in the ambulance for a few minutes, then later... - Patrick M, Lockport, NY Continue Reading

"My Road ID spoke for me twice!"
My Road ID spoke for me twice last summer when I was in a bike accident. I was out riding along a local route, when a car turned directly into me. I hit hard, sliding over the trunk and then sliding another 8 feet on gravel. When the emergency responders arrived, I was conscious, but not really 'with it'. They got all my information... - Sara Z, Pottstown, PA Continue Reading
