- **ID:** `emergency/191-199-1669-not-911`
- **Domain:** emergency
- **Category:** wrong_emergency_number
- **Verification:** ai_generated
- **Fix Rate:** 92%

## Root Cause

Thailand does not use 911. Dial 191 for police, 199 for fire, and 1669 for ambulance/medical emergency. The Tourist Police hotline 1155 offers English assistance. All are free from any phone.

## Workarounds

1. **Use Thailand's real emergency numbers.** (96% success)
   ```
   Police: 191. Fire: 199. Ambulance/medical: 1669. Tourist Police (English): 1155.
   ```
2. **If you need English help or are unsure which service, call the Tourist Police on 1155.** (82% success)
   ```
   Dial 1155 for English-speaking Tourist Police who can triage and connect you to 191/199/1669.
   ```

## Dead Ends

- **Dial 911 in Thailand expecting to reach emergency services** — 911 is not the emergency number in Thailand. Police is 191, fire is 199, and ambulance is 1669. A 911 call does not connect to local police, fire, or ambulance. (95% fail)
- **Call 191 (police) for a medical emergency expecting an ambulance** — 191 reaches police; ambulances are dispatched via 1669 (the Narenthorn EMS line). Calling the wrong line delays medical help. (50% fail)
