Participation in these activities often makes it inconvenient to carry traditional identification.
Accidents involving recreational activities are prevalent and increasing in number. During the year 2000, 387,000 pedestrians (including walkers, joggers, and runners) and bicyclists were injured in accidents , 129,000 of them traffic related (USDOT/FHWA, 2003). The current estimates are that well over 500,000 runners and cyclists are involved in roadway accidents annually.
Personal identification and medical information can save your life in an accident or emergency situation. Traditional ID does not provide adequate information on medical conditions or family contact information, both critical in treating an injured person. To be effective, ID must be worn on the body.
This new ID On Me bracelet is ideal for recreationally active adults who want to have medical and family contact information with them when they swim, run, or bike. The bracelet weighs less than 1 oz and is the most complete, versatile, and comfortable recreational ID bracelet available. |
