Cell phone-only households have risen over the years and so has the rates of cell phone 9-1-1 calls. Although technology has advanced, 9-1-1 calls from cell phones may not always be routed to the correct 9-1-1 center. Cell phones do not provide a callers location and sometimes will not provide the 9-1-1 call center a phone number. In the event that the caller is not able to provide their location and phone number, the call taker is challenged with attempting to locate the caller who may be having a life threatening situation. The caller may not have that time to spare. The Yuba City Police 9-1-1 program is a tool used to expedite response of emergency personnel to the callers.
