The first time I called 911, I was very scared. A mother with a small girls walked over the street. All the cars stopped and suddenly a car moved up a little bit (very slowly) and hit the mother. It was many years ago and I was one of the few who had a cellular phone. I took it out but I hestiated to call. The woman stood next to me, virtually yelled and told me to call 911.
I called but I couldn't even tell the name of intersection. The same woman took my phone and described the accident to 911 operator. The woman started to comfort the little girl and her mother. I stood there for a few minutes. After police came, I asked him if I could go now since I was the one who called 911. He looked at me like some kind of idiot, and told me he was busy and I could go.
Most of the time I called police was not even for myself.
