Emergency Services Abroad
Since not every region uses "911" as its emergency contact number, it's always good to write down, save on your cellphone, or commit to memory the local emergency number for your destination. If it's an occasion when you would call "911" in the US for police, fire, and ambulance support, then call the local equivalent.
