I wear the interactive RoadID, which does include vital insurance info if I choose to include it on my profile. I have current medications listed, major injuries (especially since I have a recent traumatic brain injury), doctors, medical record number, etc.

Great thing about the RoadID is that the info stays on you. According to my friend, when I had my accident, everything was scattered (I have no memory of the accident). If I didn't have the information on me, then the EMTs may not have had access to what they needed because my friend was unable to provide it. (I'm now a testimonial on RoadID.com here.)

On top of the RoadID which I wear all of the time since my accident, not just when I ride, I also carry my driver's license and insurance card in my jersey pocket.
