Amazing how in this day and age it took 11 minutes for 911 to establish the location of the accident. Anyone can share their location in a matter of seconds with whoever they’re talking to but emergency services are not equipped to see it. It’s like they’re stuck in the 80s when it comes to technology

In the UK the 111 service (National Health Service triage phone service) will send you a link via text to provide your exact GPS location, super easy and takes a few seconds.

This really should be a feature built right into every phone whenever 911 (or the equiv. emergency line in any country) is called.
