When to Call 911
When should you use 9-1-1?
Nine-one-one is only to be used in emergency situations. An emergency is any situation that requires immediate assistance from the police/sheriff, the fire department or an ambulance. If you are ever in doubt of whether a situation is an emergency you should call 9-1-1. It's better to be safe and let the 9-1-1 call taker determine if you need emergency assistance.
Do not call 9-1-1:
 | for information |
| for directory assistance |
| when you're bored and just want to talk |
| for paying tickets |
| for your pet |
| as a prank |
| for road information (see links on this page) |
| for school closing (see links on this page) |
If you call 9-1-1 by mistake, do not hang up. Tell the call taker what happened so they know there really isn't an emergency.
For further information, go to the 911 tips link on the left side of the page.
