In the heat of the moment (police suddenly getting a dispatch for a murder / hostage situation at a local residence) I hardly believe anyone involved is going to have the time to thumb through notes like that. Maybe in a really small rural community but I can't imagine there would be much chance of things going properly in any sort of larger municipality or city.
- ryanlol 9y agoThe dispatcher will type in your address into their computer and will immediately see and read these notes.
- toomuchtodo 9y agoAre these notes available as part of a freedom of information act request? Because one should be able to have written verifications these notes exist for when the inevitable breakdown in communication occurs and the note is not passed along to first responders on the scene.
- ryanlol 9y agoI would assume so. Of course various dispatchers will be running different software so this may not be universally supported, but these notes are a pretty basic feature.
