The feature has sent law enforcement to amusement parks on numerous occasions after mistaking a thrill ride’s twists, turns, and hard braking for a real emergency.
If the sensors detect that you’ve been in an accident, your iPhone will display an alert and call emergency services if you don’t dismiss it within 20 seconds., when the phone contacts law enforcement, it will play an audio message that alerts authorities you’ve been in a crash, and also provides them with your location.
An Apple Watch with Crash Detection, however, can only notify authorities if you have your iPhone with you, or if it’s connected to a mobile network or Wi-Fi., WSJ reporter Joanna Stern shared an example of one of the 911 calls placed while an iPhone 14′s owner was strapped to a rollercoaster at Cincinnati’s Kings Island amusement park. If you listen closely, as the automated message plays, you can hear muffled screams in the background as the rollercoaster runs its course.
