Police have been sent to amusement parks on a number of occasions as a result of the crash detection function on the new model, according to a report in the Wall Street Journal
The iPhone 14 has reportedly been automatically calling 911 on rollercoasters due to a feature designed to alert authorities if the user is in a car crash.
.If they detect a severe car crash, they can display an alert before contacting emergency services and notifying users' emergency contacts. If the user does not dismiss the alert within 20 seconds, emergency services call operators are then played an audio message informing them about the crash and are provided with a location.
The WSJ report featured details of one incident in which a 911 call was made from an iPhone user's handset while they were on a rollercoaster at Cincinnati's Kings Island amusement park.More on Apple
