ID for the Road
Right now thousands of people are out walking,
skiing, running, hiking and bicycling and most have no
identification with them. If involved in an accident, or during
a medical emergency, the unidentified person has no guarantee of
receiving proper treatment if the EMT's and doctors don't know
the patient.
We don't let our dogs leave the house or RV without
identification - why not do the same for ourselves? Think how
often we are away from our campers all day - fishing or
bicycling - leaving our valuables (and purses) in the RV. What
about all the times we leave our RVs to take Fido for a stroll
in an unfamiliar town? Kids just don't have ID - what if you
lose them in Disneyland?
 A
Kentucky company,
Road ID,
has a solution - a simple wrist band that can be worn anytime
you are away from home without your wallet! The wrist band,
originally designed for runners, would also be great
for RV travelers. Road ID makes ID wrist bands, ankle bands,
dog-tag style necklaces and ID that ties into your shoe lace.
Traveling with kids? Grandkids? If they are lost in an
unfamiliar city, having your cell phone number on their wrist
could save hours of agonizing before the tot is returned to you.
Wrist or dog-tag ID would also be helpful if you have an adult
family member who tends to roam.
There are several companies specializing in ID wrist bands for
children.
Ready
Safety makes a velcro ID wrist band with pouch holding a
re-writable ID card. This is perfect for travel - you can simply
change the contact information without having to replace the
wristband.
Be careful out there people - and don't get lost!
