MUST KNOW #77

I knew about the red light on cars, but not the #77. It was about 1:00 .kYzB.3@]  
p.m. q+:(@w6  
in the afternoon, and Lauren was driving to visit a friend. An UNMARKED zbi
  
police car pulled up behind her and put his lights on. *Lauren's HcVPJuD  
parents z84W{! P  
have always told them never to pull over for an unmarked car on the 0Fw\iy1o  
side of jQr~@15J#  
the road, but rather to wait until they get to a gas station, etc. * |l?ALP_ g  
EiN.VU `

Lauren had actually listened to her parents advice, and promptly called SB'YV#--  
#77 -'N#@Wdr  
on her cell phone to tell the police dispatcher that she would not pull bOFLI#p&  
over right away. She proceeded to tell the dispatcher that there was an A8RT3OiXA  
unmarked police car with a flashing red light on his rooftop behind E*I

]v  
her. eHJ7L8#  
The dispatcher checked to see if there were police cars where she was f|G7L5-  
and S]o  
there weren't, and he told her to keep driving, remain calm and that he 87Uv+((H  
had q%'ovX(dm  
back up already on the way. B~aOs>1 S]  
0!VLPA:  
Ten minutes later 4 cop cars surrounded her and the unmarked car behind ~^euaOFU 6  
her. `kv$B3  
One policeman went to her side and the others surrounded the car &B2c]GoW  
behind. Dsua13 hF  
They pulled the guy from the car and tackled him to the ground. The man Gzfb|9,q  
was =%u|8Ea*`  
a convicted rapist and wanted for other crimes. v\k,,sI

I never knew about the #77 Cell Phone Feature, but especially for a q7]W R(e  
woman 0>;#vEF*1  
alone in a car, you should not pull over for an unmarked car. WV@Tm$

Apparently Q)@1:(V/  
police have to respect your right to keep going to a safe & quiet O1ha'@qID  
place. ^(\Gonf<  
You obviously need to make some signals that you acknowledge them ( pk
U e|V  
i.e. E5t+;vL~  
put on your hazard lights) or call #77 like Lauren did. 8k1r|s@d

Too bad the cell phone companies don't generally give you this little =5/;h+bk+3  
bit 'f}S,i +q  
of wonderful information. rO`g~>-  
d-<y'GYw  
*Speaking to a service representative at **Bell ** Mobility confirmed :fYwFD( 9  
that u20b+c4  
#77 was a direct link to OPP Dispatch. So, now it's your turn to let oe*&w9Y}&  
your 48ma&f;  
friends know about #77. +{%4&T<nHw

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.
