MUST KNOW #77

I knew about the red light on cars, but not the #77. It was about 1:00 4WAs_~  
p.m. LQo>wl  
in the afternoon, and Lauren was driving to visit a friend. An UNMARKED Fr|Ts>Kx  
police car pulled up behind her and put his lights on. *Lauren's n N_Ylw  
parents _u]S/X-  
have always told them never to pull over for an unmarked car on the N!Q~?/!d  
side of ]lgI Q;r  
the road, but rather to wait until they get to a gas station, etc. * c %f'rj

Lauren had actually listened to her parents advice, and promptly called 5ns.||%k  
#77 4b
@Awtk  
on her cell phone to tell the police dispatcher that she would not pull |eu:qn8  
over right away. She proceeded to tell the dispatcher that there was an YCBcyE}p  
unmarked police car with a flashing red light on his rooftop behind Cqra\  
her. 8q"C=t7  
The dispatcher checked to see if there were police cars where she was V,?BVt  
and 5*#3v:l/9  
there weren't, and he told her to keep driving, remain calm and that he ,|7!/]0&  
had (+x!wX( x  
back up already on the way. "J=A(w5

Ten minutes later 4 cop cars surrounded her and the unmarked car behind b\.l!vn0  
her. ;+Sc Vz  
One policeman went to her side and the others surrounded the car -*nd5(lY&  
behind. 3 {OZdl|  
They pulled the guy from the car and tackled him to the ground. The man 9*ek5vPB  
was z0F'zN3J

I never knew about the #77 Cell Phone Feature, but especially for a D8O&`!mf  
woman &UextGk7  
alone in a car, you should not pull over for an unmarked car. A.|98*U%  
Apparently Cvgk67C=$  
police have to respect your right to keep going to a safe & quiet I;5:jT`  
place. o_#F,gze)S  
You obviously need to make some signals that you acknowledge them ( 9x]yu6  
i.e. |'SgGg=E  
put on your hazard lights) or call #77 like Lauren did. vw'BKi F

Too bad the cell phone companies don't generally give you this little r.vezsH  
bit M~O$,dof  
of wonderful information. FWb`F&

#77 was a direct link to OPP Dispatch. So, now it's your turn to let )*m
