Yeah loads of times! Seems to be an accident hotspot outside my house.

Why did you need the emergency services?

I had to call out the fire brigade to get my then 2 year old out of the shower cabinet that he'd got himself stuck in.

M6 8 times, 5 of which I was the car directly behind and had to give statements

Other than actual rti or calling fire brigade (once when I passed a closed petrol station on fire) I'd use 101

I rang because there was a domestic going on in a flat near mine. There was a child inside so I rang. It wasn't your normal everyday argument. Loads of police cars and a riot van turned up. I had to go to work so missed most of what happened but apparently they both came out covered in blood.

I was pretty pissed off that some neighbours didn't want to get involved so didn't ring but did stand around waiting to see what happened, even though they had children they should have been taking to school. Tossers

Couple of car accidents and a kid being hit by a car. Each time I forget that they ask which service you require and babble for a bit to the phone op.

A few times, not a nice thing to do, but the call takers are usually great, professional. We are lucky to have them

We've got loads of spineless nosies round here too. Wanting to get all the juicy details.

Funny that none of them could tell what kind of car hit mine?

& that the police couldnt locate who was driving as they'd "been to his address at 2.30am & nobody answered"!!

A few times professionally when hotel guests took ill when staying over, or there were fire alarms going off

Once personally, when my girlfriend had a heart attack in the middle of the night in front of me

I have a few times but I could probably count them on one hand.

I was told by a paramedic that if you ring from a landline then use 999 but if you ring from a mobile (so for a road traffic accident) use 112 as it is easier for them to locate you than if you ring 999. Not sure how that works but it seems good advice.

Yes only the once though. Late night an idiot careered across the road at speed, crashing into my parked car. Police came out (eventually), and apart from being able to tell them the colour of the car and direction it went (it was reversing from my vehicle when we looked out the window, but was then off at speed) they gave a crime number for my insurance

I didn't know there was another number? Wonder if 112 works in all regions or if its for your area only?

Yeah in 2001back when I was with my ex, his car had been stolen! We'd spent about 3 weeks with a Haynes manual outside his house stripping this blue nova SR that had nicer seats and other bits and bobs and tinted windows and putting all the stuff in his red nova sr, even doing jobs between is that had 4 spammers for difficulty, the last day the car was complete, woke up next morning for him to drop me home on his way to work and the car wasn't there. He was like maybe my father has moved it round the back of the house, I run round the back and no car! Was a sad day! We were only 18! If anyone ever saw a red nova sr registration

H36 EEJ let me know!

I feel your pain. My car was written off, i didn't know at the time but, mine turned out to be one of only 17 ever registered in the uk with that spec in that colour! Gutted was an understatement!

I haven't thankfully. No doubt I will have to one day, which kind of scares me having to think about it.

Rang it accidently at work once which was a bit embarrassing

Yes, I witnessed a horrific motorcycle accident around some country lanes on the way home from work once, guy going way too fast around a wet corner and lost control. I was first on the scene and thought he was dead, luckily he turned out to be ok!

Only once. Saw a 9 yr old boy playing chicken across the dual carriage way get run over.

It was pissing down

I held an umbrella over him until the emergency services arrived

Thankfully just a few broken bones
