MUST KNOW #77

I knew about the red light on cars, but not the #77. It was about 1:00 v$n J$M&k  
p.m. [v0[,K  
in the afternoon, and Lauren was driving to visit a friend. An UNMARKED KH=4A-e,0  
police car pulled up behind her and put his lights on. *Lauren's q!fdiv`  
parents vH[G#A~4  
have always told them never to pull over for an unmarked car on the s}1S6*Cr  
side of I|
Vyv  
the road, but rather to wait until they get to a gas station, etc. * g#W/WKvM

Lauren had actually listened to her parents advice, and promptly called [nYm-\M  
#77 N*mm[F2+F  
on her cell phone to tell the police dispatcher that she would not pull E8gbm&x*  
over right away. She proceeded to tell the dispatcher that there was an owR`Z`^h)  
unmarked police car with a flashing red light on his rooftop behind 85{2TXQ^%=  
her. D6Q6yNE
  
The dispatcher checked to see if there were police cars where she was #saK8; tp  
and lhk=yVG3  
there weren't, and he told her to keep driving, remain calm and that he ng0tNifZ;  
had 7A,QA5G]C  
back up already on the way.

Ten minutes later 4 cop cars surrounded her and the unmarked car behind f52*s#4}  
her. sLHUQ(S!  
One policeman went to her side and the others surrounded the car cu|S|]g  
behind. hwD;1n  
They pulled the guy from the car and tackled him to the ground. The man !k5I#w:  
was \Ei(HmEU  
a convicted rapist and wanted for other crimes. "J.7@\^ h/

I never knew about the #77 Cell Phone Feature, but especially for a ;~^9$Z@%Q  
woman ]'"aVGqa.  
alone in a car, you should not pull over for an unmarked car. r}>q*yx:  
Apparently 1K&_t  
police have to respect your right to keep going to a safe & quiet '!V5 #J  
place. K-<kp!v  
You obviously need to make some signals that you acknowledge them ( !EwL"4pPw  
i.e. %@q/OVnM  
put on your hazard lights) or call #77 like Lauren did. {.H FB:<!}

Too bad the cell phone companies don't generally give you this little 3QZ~t#,7ij  
bit Q`0k=<  
of wonderful information. jIvSjlmI

*Speaking to a service representative at **Bell ** Mobility confirmed {p90  
that j]6c_r3
 
#77 was a direct link to OPP Dispatch. So, now it's your turn to let &x mYpQ  
your 0`H)c) pP  
friends know about #77. 9y$"[d27;+

Send this to every woman (and person) you know; it may save a life.

Will pass it around.

Thank you lili, this is very useful information.
