MUST KNOW #77

I knew about the red light on cars, but not the #77. It was about 1:00 2z&HT SI  
p.m. W aks*^|  
in the afternoon, and Lauren was driving to visit a friend. An UNMARKED L?<V KT  
police car pulled up behind her and put his lights on. *Lauren's !J'BAq[x  
parents -*+7-9A I  
have always told them never to pull over for an unmarked car on the D0tI
  
side of sIg{a(1/  
the road, but rather to wait until they get to a gas station, etc. * Q

Lauren had actually listened to her parents advice, and promptly called +>37'PD  
#77 1j3mTP  
on her cell phone to tell the police dispatcher that she would not pull &5c)qap;n  
over right away. She proceeded to tell the dispatcher that there was an YV 2T$#7u  
unmarked police car with a flashing red light on his rooftop behind '}]w=2Lf  
her. qKZ~)B j  
The dispatcher checked to see if there were police cars where she was &P,8)YA  
and
ZSh RE"`  
there weren't, and he told her to keep driving, remain calm and that he O`Nzn~),x  
had I f2f7{b  
back up already on the way. yj"+!g

Ten minutes later 4 cop cars surrounded her and the unmarked car behind M>8#is(pV  
her. `3\5&Bf  
One policeman went to her side and the others surrounded the car ocGqXDg3  
behind. VbJGyjx  
They pulled the guy from the car and tackled him to the ground. The man beN0?G  
was q9F(8-J  
a convicted rapist and wanted for other crimes. F0]NtKaH

I never knew about the #77 Cell Phone Feature, but especially for a exZa:9 sp  
woman ~ B1)!5Z  
alone in a car, you should not pull over for an unmarked car. aJK8G,Vk  
Apparently 2NqlE  
police have to respect your right to keep going to a safe & quiet sDw&U?gUv  
place. U(.Ln@sq  
You obviously need to make some signals that you acknowledge them ( S'vr
O}yU  
i.e. O-5H7Kd-  
put on your hazard lights) or call #77 like Lauren did. lP\7=9rh^x

Too bad the cell phone companies don't generally give you this little d#Ql>Pr Y  
bit d5UdRX]*  
of wonderful information. )t&j0`Yq

*Speaking to a service representative at **Bell ** Mobility confirmed FdzsWm  
that ^JJ*pT:  
#77 was a direct link to OPP Dispatch. So, now it's your turn to let l<!?`V6}  
your .@.O*n#K  
friends know about #77. *8t_$<'dQ

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.
