Messages are routed to the appropriate Delaware 911 center, in a designated queue. Text-to is not available everywhere, and it s not always available when roaming. You must subscribe to your wireless carrier s text or data plan in order to make or receive text messages. Standard text messaging rates apply. If Text-to is not available in your area, or is temporarily unavailable, you should receive a message indicating this, plus instructions on how to contact 911 by other means. If you do not receive a text response from 911, try to contact 911 another way. Enter the numbers 911 in the To or Recipient field. The first text to 911 should be short; include the location of the emergency; and ask for police, fire, or ambulance. Answer questions and follow instructions from the 911 call taker. Text in simple words no abbreviations, emojis or slang. Keep all text messages short. DO NOT TEXT AND DRIVE. Who should text 911? Text-to is intended for use in three emergency scenarios: For an individual who is deaf, hard of hearing, or has a speech disability. For someone who is in a situation where it is not safe to place a voice call to 911. A medical emergency that renders the person incapable of speech. WARNING TO PRANK TEXTERS: Text-to is for use in an emergency only. Prank texters can be identified and prosecuted according to local laws and regulations. NOTE TO CALLERS: The preferred language for texting to 911 is English. Voice calls to 911 are still the best and fastest way to contact 911. Why is calling 911 still the best option? Voice calls are real-time communication, and Text-to is not. As with all text messages, messages to 911 may take longer to receive, may get out of order, or may not be received at all. Photos and videos cannot be sent to 911 at this time. Text-to cannot include more than one person. If you include anyone else on your text, it may not be received. Text GPS location information is not equal to current wireless-location technology.
