ICE TIPS - Notification Delays

Here is a sobering fact....the average amount of time it takes for authorities to accomplish notification of family members after an accident or emergency is 5 1/2 hours! Now that is an average time...now add what you like to that time in the event of even a minor disaster.....or you are out of state travelling (plane, train, auto).....or camping, biking, hiking....or caught up in a major incident....are you getting the picture.....great! Boy Scouts have it right...be prepared, the life you save may be your own.
