Very Random ?'s

Can you block your cell phone number from showing up if you call someone?

If you saw someone pile their 5 kids into the backseat of a car (ages 3-7ish) and you are almost positive there is no car seat (how could there be right?) what would you do? I don't want it to come back to me in any way so I'm not sure how to go about this. But it happens all the time!

  • No idea about the cell phone thing.  But I've called 911 before when I saw a baby less than a year old being held on someone's lap in the back seat.  They asked for license plate, make/model of car, and the direction they were driving.

  • I think *67 makes your number restricted or it did back in the day when people had *69 to see the last call.

  • *67 will show Private, unavailable or Restricted on the caller id.

  • I think Sum is right, *67 blocks your number. If you're super worried about it, sign up for a Google voice #! In Nebraska we are all mandatory reporters. I would think the lack of sufficient seat belts alone would constitute neglect!

  • Not sure about the phone # thing, but I could call and report them.

  • Ok wasn't sure if the *67 worked on cells and I couldn't even remember what it was anymore! Thanks :)

    ANd about calling them in, I see it when they are at their house as they are leaving/coming home so I am worried it won't be so random giving them their home address as opposed to "I see these people driving down the road" type thing. It's kind of an odd situation but I worry about what might happen if they knew it was us.

    I wouldn't worry about that.  Anybody anywhere could call it in. Given the plate #, the police can find their address.  It could just as easily be someone passing them in traffic as it is you.  Tell the dispatcher your concerns to be sure they don't say a neighbor made the report.  I'd be more worried about the kids' safety than about them suspecting you.
