Even opponents of cellular telephone usage by drivers acknowledge their
utility in an emergency situation. Here are the state police / highway
patrol telephone numbers by state. Law enforcement agencies urge motorists
to use these numbers only to report accidents, emergencies, impaired
drivers, reckless drivers, vehicle problems, hazardous material spills and
criminal behavior. We urge drivers to be aware of using their cellular
telephones in a safe manner and to be aware of laws which prohibit using
their phones while driving.
The National government and many states have mandated that 911 work from
your cellular telephone. According to many Cellular Providers, they are
making strides to accomplish this. Fair warning - your cellular telephone
may or may not work with the numbers below. We urge you to check with the
local or state authorities, before you travel.
