Keep your battery charged - it could save your life

How a phone will save your life

Remember girls, ALWAYS keep a charge on your mobile.

I found a really interesting story on CO-ED Magazine about a woman whose life was saved by her phone. The woman writing the story, had turned off her phone because it was running out of batteries and as she says: “You don’t want to have a dead phone in case of an emergency.”

That night, a few hours later, a taxi driver locked her in the cab and refused to let her out. She started screaming at the man and he claimed the meter was broken and he couldn’t let her out. She immediately powered on her dead phone and called 911 for help. Police officers let her out of the vehicle that was going God knows where, and also discovered the meter was working fine. The rest of the story will take place in court.

The author, Elizabeth of Baruch College warns: “Please let this be a lesson to all of you out there, particularly the women, to always have your cell phones on hand (and charged) just in case.”
