[asterisk-users] 911 versus 9.911

[end1r]

I know every second counts in a real 911 situation, but what about adding a
pause in the call flow. Maybe a 1 second pause before actually passing the
digits to the provider. This gives the user 1 second to realize the mistake
and hang up, longer than 1 seconds is a real emergency.

 

Just a thought.

Subject: [asterisk-users] 911 versus 9.911

 

Is there a FCC or other North America requirement that I provide 911 versus
9.911.  I want to require users to dial 9.911 in our office, and remove 911.
Are there any statutory requirements or laws about this? User accidentially
dial 9 then 1 then another 1 and hangup.  We've educated them to stay on the
line and ever hang up, but they hang up anyway, resulting in fines for
excess hangups to 911.
