I can't believe this. This girl calls the Brithish equivalent of 911, and they just hang up on her. Thus automatic disconnect thing needs to stop--it has already caused one girl her life to come to a very horrible death.

This is one of those tragedies one hears about. You can't blame the operator, this was a design 'flaw'. You have to understand how many calls they get from accidentaly placed calls. I have done it myself, though not to 911 (usually last number dialed). So it is understandable that they would have a cut off of some kind, but maybe they could put in an operator override? (I don't know if it would have helped in this case)

So sad. This remind me of rules to prevent this lethal situation.
