I once was curious about what happens when an American visit my country and dial 911 in a hurry, as a reflex. It turns out that you reach an automatic exchange that asks what type of emergency service you need, and redirect your call.
Over here in the UK it’s a redirect over to the main 999 line, same for when you dial the European number 112. Very good to have, probably a lot of calls went through that wouldn’t have otherwise.
Someone acted FAST
Face weakness: Can the person smile? Has their mouth or eye drooped?
Arm weakness: Can the person raise both arms fully and keep them there?
Speech problems: Can the person speak clearly and understand what you say? Is their speech slurred?
Time to call 999 or the correct number for your country: if you see any one of these signs.
0118999881999119725… 3.
Well that’s easy to remember
This emergency services? Then which country am I speaking to? Hello?
I’ve had a bit of a tumble

I wonder if more countries have that.
