Truly it is my wish everyone arrives at your destination safely. But as we all know accidents do happen and that is why their called accidents. Here is how your iPhone could save your life. ON every iPhone FREE from Apple is a HEALTH APP. Let's say you're in an auto/RV accident and unconscious. A Policeman or Firemen, can pick up your iPhone even if locked and ONLY enter your emergency information, nothing more. But only if YOU HAVE SET UP MEDICAL ID, in advance. This would also be good to set up on child phone should they have a medical emergency. List your medical issue(s), BIO, DOCTOR and emergency contact(s).

Here the link: iPhone Health APP Medical ID Information.

There are risk trade-offs in everything. Keeping a cell phone next to your body does increase the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) due to radiation. And we all know that increased radiation leads to increased probability of cancer.

So what is more likely? That you will be trapped and unable to reach a cell phone to call for help? Or that you will come down with cancer at some point? I am not sure there is a right answer as much as there is an individual preference.

This does give you something to think about the next time you see a woman tuck a cell phone in her bra. Seems to me like a big risk for later-in-life problems.

Look first for a medic alert bracelet.. A first aid person could leave a note in the personโ€™s pocket more easily than in the iPhone. I think the most useful Apple feature in this area is the Find Friends App that makes it easy to find the location of a friend or family member.

This is good information. I set my medical info up on my iPhone a few months ago. I take blood pressure medicine so of course entered that along with my wife and kids contact info. Anyone can access this information if you're out of commission

Also, keep your phone in your pocket. In an accident it will end up under the dash,between the seats,out the window. In your pocket it will be there where you can find it.

Not RV related, but my brother had a cement block wall fall on him, he layed pinned for six hours with his cell on the dashboard fifty feet away.
He was just lucky that a friend saw his truck and stopped to say hi.

Keep your phone in your pocket!

Where else is this posted on this forum, I havenโ€™t seen it.
If on completely different forums, who cares why not.
