MUST KNOW #77

I knew about the red light on cars, but not the #77. It was about 1:00 A^pW]r=Xtk  
p.m. D9^7m j?e  
in the afternoon, and Lauren was driving to visit a friend. An UNMARKED x}"Q8kD  
police car pulled up behind her and put his lights on. *Lauren's xURw,  
parents *( *z|2  
have always told them never to pull over for an unmarked car on the xYT}
>#[  
side of Xu]h
$%W  
the road, but rather to wait until they get to a gas station, etc. * Kfjryo9

Lauren had actually listened to her parents advice, and promptly called 8IWwjyRr  
#77 aF])"9  
on her cell phone to tell the police dispatcher that she would not pull PRpE$`WK  
over right away. She proceeded to tell the dispatcher that there was an lwsbm D  
unmarked police car with a flashing red light on his rooftop behind ;:_(7|  
her. :ej_D}  
The dispatcher checked to see if there were police cars where she was 9--dRTG  
and t-lv|%+8
 
there weren't, and he told her to keep driving, remain calm and that he <|JU(B  
had b? k4InXh  
back up already on the way. vXubY@k2

Ten minutes later 4 cop cars surrounded her and the unmarked car behind I<`V_
 
her. @^wpAQfd4  
One policeman went to her side and the others surrounded the car 6F ;Or  
behind. $I(}r3r  
They pulled the guy from the car and tackled him to the ground. The man WD;)VsP  
was G7Ny"{Z  
a convicted rapist and wanted for other crimes. *aG"+c6|

I never knew about the #77 Cell Phone Feature, but especially for a {&`VGXG  
woman p"KV*D9b  
alone in a car, you should not pull over for an unmarked car. {5 Kz'FT  
Apparently 8*)4"rS  
police have to respect your right to keep going to a safe & quiet uo 4x nzc  
place. !w=,p.?V=  
You obviously need to make some signals that you acknowledge them ( $nFAu}%C  
i.e. ]^!}*  
put on your hazard lights) or call #77 like Lauren did. #11RLvDQd

Too bad the cell phone companies don't generally give you this little (fd[P|G_]  
bit k#jm7 +  
of wonderful information. U3VT*nj'

*Speaking to a service representative at **Bell ** Mobility confirmed N(7u],(Om  
that JX&~y.F  
#77 was a direct link to OPP Dispatch. So, now it's your turn to let .D3`'K3t{[  
your ~>w:;M=sV8  
friends know about #77. Oo/8Y E

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.
