This is helpful! When there was a car accident I called 911, but accidentally hung up. I didn't know whether to call back or not so...

This isn't right. The police have to come to the house/area where the call was made no matter what. Just think, if a girl calls 911 and she doesn't speak but the 911 operator feels like she's being hurt/kidnapped, and then a man takes the phone and says its just an accidental call, do you really think that they're going to risk the chance of saving a girls life? Even if it is accidental and you say it is to the operator, the police have to come still.

My brother is a policeman. If you call, they have to come no matter what.

No they don't have to come they call right away after you hung up. They make sure everyone in the household is okay and ask for your name and address and your age. If you are telling the truth they will let you hang up the phone. If you lie they will have to come to the house. This situation happened to me.

And how exactly would they know if you are telling the truth or not if you are any good at lying?

So a guy who broke into your home, held a gun to your head, and told you to say "It was a mistake"? 911 FAIL
