PS cell phones will call 911 even with out service in most locations
If I understand it correctly, you must at least have a signal to dial 911. It doesn't matter who your service provider is, or if you even have one. If you can get a signal from a cell tower, you can dial 911. Several years ago an elderly gentleman died of exposure when he and his wife were stranded in their car in New York's Adirondacks, on I-87 "The Northway". Although they had a cell phone, they could not get a signal to dial for help. The wife survived but her husband did not. The state and service providers are now working to improve service on that section of the interstate which runs from Albany to Montreal.
