MUST KNOW #77

I knew about the red light on cars, but not the #77. It was about 1:00 Ym%XCl  
p.m. TXdo,DPv7  
in the afternoon, and Lauren was driving to visit a friend. An UNMARKED 
@Z.BYC  
police car pulled up behind her and put his lights on. *Lauren's z9Z4MXl  
parents q#=HBSyM  
have always told them never to pull over for an unmarked car on the Y \Gx|  
side of w$iQ,--  
the road, but rather to wait until they get to a gas station, etc. * @CMEmgk~

Lauren had actually listened to her parents advice, and promptly called T[Lz4;TRk5  
#77 z;DNl#|!L  
on her cell phone to tell the police dispatcher that she would not pull FRa>cf4  
over right away. She proceeded to tell the dispatcher that there was an fYSH]!  
unmarked police car with a flashing red light on his rooftop behind 9:R3+,ZN  
her. fJOwE g|  
The dispatcher checked to see if there were police cars where she was $7"
Y/9Y  
and "%lIB{  
there weren't, and he told her to keep driving, remain calm and that he nr&bpA/  
had zX lcu_rc  
back up already on the way. iYD5~pK8

Ten minutes later 4 cop cars surrounded her and the unmarked car behind 0CO@@`~4  
her. hi`[  
One policeman went to her side and the others surrounded the car MX? *jYl  
behind. xpX<iT>5u  
They pulled the guy from the car and tackled him to the ground. The man D%L^[|)c\s  
was SSxp!E'  
a convicted rapist and wanted for other crimes. _iu~vU)r

I never knew about the #77 Cell Phone Feature, but especially for a ;.'?(iEB  
woman CFC15/yU  
alone in a car, you should not pull over for an unmarked car. ZLP/&`>8  
Apparently `*6|2  
police have to respect your right to keep going to a safe & quiet F/x2}'
 
place. ClG\Kpirh  
You obviously need to make some signals that you acknowledge them ( kMJ}sS  
i.e. R:4@a ':H  
put on your hazard lights) or call #77 like Lauren did. _o[fjd

Too bad the cell phone companies don't generally give you this little hjyM xg;Q?  
bit LTxP@pr  
of wonderful information. d~ +(g!

*Speaking to a service representative at **Bell ** Mobility confirmed Bv<aB(c  
that ^"<x4e9+j  
#77 was a direct link to OPP Dispatch. So, now it's your turn to let tk]D)+{u&c  
your .' }jd#  
friends know about #77. 4C/G &w&

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

Thank you lili, this is very useful information.

Will pass it around.
