Did you know you can still call 9-1-1 when your cellphone is locked? Even if the cellphone is old and deactivated. Often times, various phone providers make it accessible to make emergency calls during times of distress, such as by swiping ⬆️ and tapping “emergency call.” Accessing 9-1-1 quickly is useful in situations where immediate help is needed. This feature, however, also makes it easy for children to accidentally dial 9-1-1 while playing on a cellphone, which tends to happen too often. Accidental 9-1-1 calls serve risk for tying up phone lines in cases of emergency. Take action ahead and learn what emergency features your cellphone has to offer. #PSA #PublicServiceAnnouncement
