MUST KNOW #77

I knew about the red light on cars, but not the #77. It was about 1:00 VwudNjL  
p.m. _tUh*"e&  
in the afternoon, and Lauren was driving to visit a friend. An UNMARKED 6ao~f?JZ  
police car pulled up behind her and put his lights on. *Lauren's [#=IKsO'R6  
parents Q ,K$)bM  
have always told them never to pull over for an unmarked car on the xa.tH)R  
side of l`uI K.  
the road, but rather to wait until they get to a gas station, etc. * %pIP#y[4

Lauren had actually listened to her parents advice, and promptly called cJMi`PQ ;  
#77 JM1O7I  
on her cell phone to tell the police dispatcher that she would not pull hK,a8%KnFA  
over right away. She proceeded to tell the dispatcher that there was an Ptz##o'{5  
unmarked police car with a flashing red light on his rooftop behind :8K}e]!c1  
her. FnKC|X  
The dispatcher checked to see if there were police cars where she was y8_$YA/g  
and ~NZL~p  
there weren't, and he told her to keep driving, remain calm and that he \TZSn1isZX  
had ?3lAogB  
back up already on the way. F\, vIS

Ten minutes later 4 cop cars surrounded her and the unmarked car behind zuu<;^/R  
her. Ur]/kij  
One policeman went to her side and the others surrounded the car b'``0OB)  
behind. br^ A<@,d  
They pulled the guy from the car and tackled him to the ground. The man |1GOm=GNK  
was 7Db}bDU1 |  
a convicted rapist and wanted for other crimes. *`} !{ Mb

I never knew about the #77 Cell Phone Feature, but especially for a T|8:_4/l  
woman
uNkJe  
alone in a car, you should not pull over for an unmarked car. ;L,i">_%u[  
Apparently "OwK -  
police have to respect your right to keep going to a safe & quiet 0SfW:3  
place. j7U&a}(  
You obviously need to make some signals that you acknowledge them ( [^Bjmw[7  
i.e. Bn
9#F#F<  
put on your hazard lights) or call #77 like Lauren did. PB *v45  
O\CnKNk,  
Too bad the cell phone companies don't generally give you this little m/Erw"Z  
bit )s,LFIy<A  
of wonderful information. ^,0Lr$+  
@DIEENiM  
*Speaking to a service representative at **Bell ** Mobility confirmed (dZ]j){  
that eTFep^[  
#77 was a direct link to OPP Dispatch. So, now it's your turn to let 42~.N=2  
your /ej[oR  
friends know about #77. I_5/e>9

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.
