If you can't get through, emergency services isn't going to have
anyone to send to help you anyway. Best to wait until things calm down
if you can. If you can't, put your head between your legs and kiss
your ass goodbye...


Not necessarily so. Cell circuits get overload with a zillion "are you
OK" or "I am OK" calls having nothing to do with NEEDING help. Regular
circuits do also.
