We Did Not Approve Using "11" to dial "911"
My proposal was to - add 11 2,2 P14 to the ARS Digit Analysis Table and
- add a new route-pattern (RP) 14 that inserts digits 99 to the dialed string.
After an exhausing review we elected not to impliment this for two reasons.
- The risk of false positives outweighed any perceived benefit.
- There has never been a known case of someone dialing "11" thinking that they had dialed "911."
