Seriously though, no, you call 1-1-2. At least if it's really true that Europe has a uniform emergency number like I'm told here in the Netherlands, which frankly I doubt, cause when I was in Hungary for a couple of months last year I found out that it could also be 1-1-7 over there... Europe, gotta love it. But the question remains, do you call 9-1-1 when the 911 factory goes boom
