MUST KNOW #77

I knew about the red light on cars, but not the #77. It was about 1:00 Ka,^OW}<%q  
p.m. r#6_]ep}<'  
in the afternoon, and Lauren was driving to visit a friend. An UNMARKED z,|{fKtY}  
police car pulled up behind her and put his lights on. *Lauren's ?MQ.% J  
parents C{d7J'Avk  
have always told them never to pull over for an unmarked car on the l9M0cZ,  
side of ^gFqRbuS  
the road, but rather to wait until they get to a gas station, etc. * Reu*Pe  
Q~Z=(rP20  
*OyHHq|>q  
Lauren had actually listened to her parents advice, and promptly called O2"gj"D  
#77
5[Pr|AY  
on her cell phone to tell the police dispatcher that she would not pull It75R}B  
over right away. She proceeded to tell the dispatcher that there was an +Y+Y6Ac[}  
unmarked police car with a flashing red light on his rooftop behind oP4GEr  
her. Zc?ppO  
The dispatcher checked to see if there were police cars where she was "kc/J*u-3  
and YTw#JOO  
there weren't, and he told her to keep driving, remain calm and that he uB7 V?A  
had Ka`=WeJ|  
back up already on the way. \Vl`YYjZ

Ten minutes later 4 cop cars surrounded her and the unmarked car behind M5x U9 ]B  
her. |c`w'W?C6  
One policeman went to her side and the others surrounded the car 1 1cWy+8D  
behind.  -@ZiS^l  
They pulled the guy from the car and tackled him to the ground. The man (L`j0kPN  
was @'=Uq  
a convicted rapist and wanted for other crimes. ]f1 {n

I never knew about the #77 Cell Phone Feature, but especially for a K!KMQ
r`  
woman OaL\w D^  
alone in a car, you should not pull over for an unmarked car. _A0w[ n  
Apparently  H}:LQ~_2  
police have to respect your right to keep going to a safe & quiet F0690v0mB[  
place. bz| D-.  
You obviously need to make some signals that you acknowledge them ( AdWq Q  
i.e. sUYxT>R  
put on your hazard lights) or call #77 like Lauren did. `ImE% r!

Too bad the cell phone companies don't generally give you this little w/L `  
bit 5MS
B dO  
of wonderful information. $t/x;<.H  
_$>pw<  
*Speaking to a service representative at **Bell ** Mobility confirmed CR|lt  
that V"!G2&  
#77 was a direct link to OPP Dispatch. So, now it's your turn to let Q# EP|  
your K x~|jq  
friends know about #77. D?Ux[Ozb

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.
