WISCONSIN Great Idea
ICYMI: The Wisconsin DMV now offers an option to add your emergency contact information to your driver license or ID record. The service was put in place to provide law enforcement the ability to contact a family member or friend more quickly in an emergency.
Adding the information is voluntary and will not appear on your card. Only law enforcement can access the information.
Over 45,000 people have already added their info! To get started, visit https://wisconsindot.gov/Pages/dmv/license-drvs/how-to-apply/Emergency-contact.aspx for the convenient online self-service application. A visit to a DMV customer service center is not necessary.
