I had a very nasty motorcycle accident last Friday at national speed limits in the Scottish Borders. I was wearing my turtle airbag vest which I bought from the Helite stand at the Scottish Motorcycle Show a few years ago, which deployed. I have no recollection of the accident. From discussion with the police who attended, I believe I highsided on gravel or diesel and hit my head, smashing my Shoei helmet and was unconscious for most of the day. I had severe concussion, severe gravel rash on hip and leg and needed stitches in a toe. Everyone has been astonished that I had no internal injuries and no damage to my back, neck or torso. There is no question that the air vest saved me from far worse injuryand I’m convinced it saved my life. I haven’t seen my bike since but am sure it’ll be a write-off. I would be happy to send you photos of the vest or let you inspect it – the back of it is wrecked from sliding along the road so I don’t know if its repairable or needs replaced. I love motorcycling, have advanced riding qualifications and ride for Blood Bikes Scotland in Edinburgh. I would just like to thank you guys for producing such a genuinely life saving product. I swithered about 5 times about whether to buy one and was persuaded by a man at that motorbike show who had his life saved by one. Had I not been wearing the vest last week, I doubt very much I would be here today.
