SOS Emergency
Life Threatening
With ongoing loadshedding, ensure your cellular phone remains charged.
Enable live location tracking on your cellular phone on your local security channel.
If unable to contact SAPS or EMS, request those on the security channel to do so on your behalf.
Leave a voice message on security channel or simply type 10111. Even a garbled message will alert others who will try and contact you. In an emergency, you will rarely have time to type detailed requests.

The Flying Squad, an elite crime-fighting unit of the police, is meant to quickly respond to priority, serious and violent crimes as well as provide visible policing along the country’s major roads.
Emergency numbers you should have on your cellphone
1. Nationwide Emergency Response – 10111
The telephone number 10111 is for any emergency that requires police response and can be dialed from anywhere in South Africa.
A call centre operator will answer the incoming call, take all necessary particulars then assign the emergency to the relevant response team to attend to the incident. This may be a Flying Squad patrol vehicle, or the local police station.
Calls to 10111 made on a landline are free. Calls made from a cell phone are charged at the normal cell phone rates.
2. Cell phone emergency – 112
The number 112 can be called from any cell phone in South Africa. It will transfer your line to a call centre and they will route you to the emergency service closest to you.
When this number is dialed, it is followed by an automated menu. But remain calm, because the menu exists as a form of triage (priority of treatment) control and filters out abuse of the medical and emergency system.
A call to 112 on a cell phone is free and is even possible on a cell phone that does not have airtime.
3. Ambulance response – 10177
The 10177 number can be used in the case of a medical emergency and can be called in conjunction with both the fire and police department respectively, depending on whether or not there are casualties.
