On my Ericsson phone you could dial 112 without first turning off key lock, you can't do that with 000.

Thanks Jabba, next cop car that tries to pull me over I'm not stopping due to a very real fear of being raped by rogue officers.

You're not serious!

Who the hell thought that one up and actually tried it (before you)?

Is there just some group of people who randomly think weird combinations up and test them out?

The original story in here is the biggest load of steaming horse ship I've ever read.

Yes, 112 works because it will use any network that it can reach. As far as not stopping for police cars because of some hot air that you read on the internet, well you deserve to lose you licence for as long as the Migstrate takes it off you for, and he will!

When someone doesn't stop for the police, its called a pursuit, and the charges you'll get for that are great. Big fines, long periods without a licence. And running the "I didn't feel safe" defence... Umm, yeah, try that, that's a good one.....
