One of our group pocket dialed 911 in the middle of a deer drive a couple of years ago. They called him back on his cell. He explained the situation and Seaforth OPP felt no obligation to come out to the swamp and make sure we were all okay... Over zealous police work IMO
Nope. It's good police work. It's not top of the list and if not followed up it is because they have higher priority calls to attend to.Quote:

It's very good advice if you are breaking the law.Quote:
