911 - Cell Phones
Take the time to find out what the non-911 emergency number is for each locality. Calling 911 from a cell phone may route your call to a central dispatch, and that dispatcher would then have to relay the information to the local area.
For instance, in my area 911 on a cell phone goes to the highway patrol dispatch center, with that person transferring/relaying the call to the locality. Having a direct number can save precious time... and don't forget to pre-program the area code for those who travel.
At least here, the non-911 number is ###-0911.
