Emergency Cellular Telephone Numbers
by State
Even opponents of cellular telephone usage by drivers acknowledge their utility in an emergency situation. Here are the state police / highway patrol telephone numbers by state. Law enforcement agencies urge motorists to use these numbers only to report accidents, emergencies, impaired drivers, reckless drivers, vehicle problems, hazardous material spills and criminal behavior. We urge drivers to be aware of using their cellular telephones in a safe manner and to be aware of laws which prohibit using their phones while driving.
