That's how it is here in peoria arizona. My sister accidently (don't ask me how since none of the numbers come close to starting with 911) dialed it and hung up immediately, I think before it even had a chance to audibly ring. She was calling someone so I guess she must not have answered call waiting when she was talking to her friend, assuming 911 called back. But 5-10 minutes later a cop showed up at our door asking if we had any trouble. It's a cool system, makes me feel safer to know I don't have to actually speak to them to get them here if there was ever a situation I could just dial and defend.
And my opinion is she should probably be fired on the spot. You don't mess around in these situations.
