Road ID Saved My Life!

Two weeks after completing the Tupper Lake Half Ironman, I was relearning the pleasure of biking for fun - instead of pounding out mileage for the purpose of training. On a beautiful, sunny Tuesday morning, I headed out for a ride with my friend Mary. We were 10 miles into our ride when a truck, pulling a long trailer, was closing in on us from behind. The driver pulled out into the oncoming lane in an effort to pass us and then suddenly cut back into the lane. When he did this, the trailer clipped my bike and set me soaring tin the air. I flipped at least once in the air and then slammed into a telephone pole before landing, head first, on the pavement.

My friend frantically called 911 and I was taken, via helicopter, to the Pen trauma center. The Paramedics and Mary were able to contact my husband due to the fact that I was wearing (as I always do) my Road ID. Since I was wearing my Road ID, my husband arrived at the hospital in time to make strategic trauma decisions so that the team of doctors could save my life.

I was in a coma for 2 weeks, CCU for 2 more weeks and in hospitalized rehabilitation for 3 months. I’m proud to say that I have started training again and have just completed the Runners World Half Marathon.

I thank God for 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
