Question 1

How Should I Use 911?

Accepted Answer

911 should be used for an emergency situation. If you get into a car accident, it is safe to say that calling 911 in a fender bender is optional; if anyone is seriously injured and needs medical attention, 911 should be called. It is appropriate to call authorities if your car is broken into to file a report your insurance can use. If you or someone nearby is in mortal danger, 911 should be your primary contact for assistance.

Question 3

When Was 911 Invented?

Accepted Answer

Before 1968, there existed no universal number for emergencies. Residents in their individual communities had to rely on telephone numbers of local operators. Unfortunately, the quality of these services varied greatly, especially during times of heavy use. To fix this, the FCC (or Federal Communications Commission) made a deal with AT&T and Bell Industries in 1967 to establish an emergency number that could be used across the United States, a short number that could be memorized by anyone.
