33. Teléfono de emergencia
Un teléfono de emergencia es un teléfono específico instalado junto a la carretera o en un túnel que conecta directamente a los usuarios con un centro de emergencias, control del tráfico o asistencia en carretera. Estos teléfonos se instalan habitualmente en túneles, autopistas u otros lugares donde es importante poder comunicar rápidamente un accidente, una avería o un incendio. Pueden proporcionar a los operadores información útil sobre la ubicación de quien llama y seguir disponibles en lugares con mala cobertura de telefonía móvil.
