Dialing 911 from a Cell Phone
Dialing on a cellular phone
- If inside of a vehicle, pull off to the side of the road.
- Be aware that cellular calls may not always be routed to the nearest 9-1-1 center.
- Tell the dispatcher your exact location, since cellular phones do not have address information.
- Look for landmarks.
- Stay on the phone until the call taker tells you to disconnect.
