Hey, you fucking nerds
| 911 tries to keep an address on file for every phone number. You should actually call 911 every once in a while and ask for an address check to make sure they know where to go if they get a call from you
| Oh, that's neat. What if someone didn't do that and the same situation happened?
| unfortunate circumstance but unlikely, I think if a child is old enough to pick up a phone and call 911 while witnessing an emergency, that means they're calm/old enough to properly describe their location
| I guess that makes sense. Welp.
| If it's a cell they can figure where you are fairly accurately without any abnormal feedback from the device, as well. (This is pretty common, or at least assumed knowledge at this point, but nobody brought it up, so.)

This reminds me of the time a child called 911 when their mother started suffering from an allergic reaction.
The operator successfully got the child to stick their mother with a epi-pen, so she didn't suffocate. Then EMS arrived to take her to a hospital.

That reminds me, I need to learn how to use an epipen. Not for me, of course - I wouldn't have made it this far if I needed it - but just in case shit happens and I'm around.
| I'm pretty sure they have it on authority to trace a phones geolocation
| There is articles on this stuff stop asking.

| Tell me - if a child called the police or fire department because of a local tragedy, and the kid didn't know the adress, what the shit would happen? Would they track the phone or try to get more information? If so, how?
