MUST KNOW #77

I knew about the red light on cars, but not the #77. It was about 1:00 tm1#Lh0  
p.m. ;!S i_b2  
in the afternoon, and Lauren was driving to visit a friend. An UNMARKED w#v-h3XcF  
police car pulled up behind her and put his lights on. *Lauren's XX7zm_>+  
parents *iX PG9XZ  
have always told them never to pull over for an unmarked car on the MgO_gFr  
side of l Vv'_9yg  
the road, but rather to wait until they get to a gas station, etc. * >sjvE4s

Lauren had actually listened to her parents advice, and promptly called n'To:  
#77 Rp+Lu  
on her cell phone to tell the police dispatcher that she would not pull ARUzEo gcf  
over right away. She proceeded to tell the dispatcher that there was an &=*sN`  
unmarked police car with a flashing red light on his rooftop behind _Z>ny&  
her. u>ZH-nw O  
The dispatcher checked to see if there were police cars where she was 2c*w{\X  
and Qz4eQlWhp  
there weren't, and he told her to keep driving, remain calm and that he 
,ZI#p6  
had B?%e-xV-  
back up already on the way. R XN0v@V

Ten minutes later 4 cop cars surrounded her and the unmarked car behind buldA5*!o  
her. 4A`U [r_>D  
One policeman went to her side and the others surrounded the car :F8h}\a*  
behind. S5BS![-QK  
They pulled the guy from the car and tackled him to the ground. The man '4Drs}j5  
was |.z4

a convicted rapist and wanted for other crimes. oeYUsnsbi

I never knew about the #77 Cell Phone Feature, but especially for a }}qY,@eeX  
woman w=_q<1a  
alone in a car, you should not pull over for an unmarked car. 5BJn_<  
Apparently ToK=`0#LNK  
police have to respect your right to keep going to a safe & quiet .[r1Qz7G  
place. -zg 6^f_pW  
You obviously need to make some signals that you acknowledge them ( 4|&_i)S-Y  
i.e. c(b2f-0!4  
put on your hazard lights) or call #77 like Lauren did. .wV-g:2

Too bad the cell phone companies don't generally give you this little (: P#l&f  
bit A]laS7Q  
of wonderful information. mEmgr(W

*Speaking to a service representative at **Bell ** Mobility confirmed kQF3DR$,B  
that h,\5C/  
#77 was a direct link to OPP Dispatch. So, now it's your turn to let =pZ$oTR  
your ,. zHG  
friends know about #77. KV8O

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