If a Paramedic answers an emergency call, but when they arrive, the bystander dies, what happens then?

What happens if you call OnStar Emergency and you don't say anything for like a minute and hang up?

  • I just found out my son called OnStar Emergency and he didn't say anything to the advisor all I was able to hear was "OnStar Emergency this is Sandra can you hear me?" and he ended the call. Will OnStar send the emergency services to our location?

  • Answer:

    Onstar had a sensor in your vehicle to detect if it's damaged or if you wreck. They most likely have called emergency services. You should press the button yourself and inform them of the mistake. They may assume you were having a heart attack or stroke or anything to where you couldn't talk.

they might, as they may think the person has fainted or been abducted. But they may also think prankcall. So be prepared if you get a knock at the door

Yes, they will send the police to check on you. If you were sick and they did nothing you would probably sue them.

Burt.

I would think so, like when you dial 911 and hang up.

They might. Why not call them and explain what happened?
