Have you ever wondered if you could send a text to 911 and get help if you needed it?
Well, you can send a text to 911, but you're most likely going to get an automated "bounce back message" which is not from a real person. And that means you're most likely not going to get help.
"The Federal Communication Commission (FCC) recognizes the critical role texting could play in saving lives and requires all wireless carriers to support 911 texting. Unfortunately, less than 5% of emergency call centers nationwide can accept and respond to these 911 text messages. Local municipalities are slow to adopt the technology despite over 70% of 911 calls coming from cell phones. Our emergency call centers need to keep up with technology."
A huge need right?
