many years ago, pre-cell phone, we were at home one evening, prepping dinner, and Mrs. DAB needed a number, so picked up the land line, and dialed 411 (info), except she actually dialed 911. realized her mistake, hung up, and properly dialed 411.
meanwhile, the call gets logged, they try calling back, but alas, she had the line tied up with her call to 411, so they send out a cruiser. about 5 min later, knock at the front door. i answer, see the police guy in uniform, and ask him if I can help him.
he tells us about the 911 call, I look over at Mrs. DAB, and she looks totally embarrassed. OOPS. no officer, all is well, we're having dinner, and it's just the two of us. sorry for the bother.
for future reference, if you do make a 911 call by mistake, just call back and explain it was a mistake.
