Great idea Ice. Thanks for sharing. Will save many more lives, no doubt.
I trialed an app that did that a while ago (maybe not the same one). It was adjustable for sensitivity etc but I found it really hard to get a setting that didn't send false alarms (really _don't_ want that) , but was sensitive enough to trigger on a low side type crash. Unlike cars, motorcycle crashes don't always involve a high impact. The other problem was that the one I used , to try to minimise false alarms, had a eture wheeby if i though t it detected a crash, but then you kept moving, it assumed a false alarm. Which might not be rue, if you were sliding along the road!However, YMMV.
I didn't know Mr Bell did apps for his phones....
