7 Signs You Should Call 911 Right Away (And 5 False Alarms)
CALL 911: Drunk driving
Rogala shockingly explains that ‘one of the most frequently under-reported criminal offenses that warrants a call to 911 is when someone spots an impaired driver on the roadway.’
In other words, if you notice any driver who appears to having consumed alcohol or other dangerous substances, you should definitely call the emergency line. Not only is this a very serious crime, but it can also threaten the driver’s life as well as that of other traffic participants.
Note that even small quantities of alcohol can have a serious impact on a driver’s ability to focus and maneuver the vehicle correctly. If you notice anybody on the wheel acting strange, a 911 call can be literally life-saving, so don’t give it a second thought!
