How long would it take for you to tell the police the make, model, and license plate number of each of your vehicles?
Do you know your spouse’s driver’s license number by heart?
I’m all about having important information backed up someplace safe.
But what if you are out and about?
How could you access that info quickly?
Here’s what I recommend:
Create a folder in your phone’s photo album of pictures of emergency information.
Make it a private folder that requires a passcode to keep it safe.
I recommend taking at least three photos of each of your vehicles. One photo of the back side showing the license plate, one of a side view, and one of the vehicle’s VIN number.
Take a photo of each vehicle’s registration and insurance card.
A photo of everyone’s drivers licence.
Your pet’s vaccination record.
Your health insurance card.
Think of anything you’d be without if someone stole your handbag or wallet, but you kept your phone.
Pictures of your credit cards.
A photo of a list of medical conditions for each family member.
The list goes on and on.
The point is to have your important documents at your (literal) fingertips if your world goes sideways.
Stress plays havoc with everyone’s thought process when emergencies happen. It’s great to have mission-critical information where you can get to it fast.
Here’s why I bring this up…
It’s one more reason to have all your electronic devices backed up on IDrive.
Because if you use the Personal plan, all your devices are in folders under one main account. And you can access every folder on any other device that’s backed up.
You can even access them from someone else’s computer if you have your Username and Password.
The best thing is knowing your electronic devices’ data is protected no matter what life may throw at us.
This offer from IDrive gives your household 5 Terabytes of data storage–enough to to backup 10 laptops.
So sign up for your IDrive Personal backup plan for just $9.95 for the first year.
After that, it goes to $99.50 per year. Even at that number, the peace of mind you get for knowing your data is safe is worth way more than the roughly $9 per month it works out to.
Sign up today for the 90% off rate.
And go make an Emergency folder in your photo album on your phone before you forget about it.
Be Safe, Have Fun,
