Thanks Andy.
However each example happens to be an urban legend and started in 2009.
Interesting problems though.
Anybody know a cop that might shed some light on how to best handle these 
situations?

A  MESSAGE FROM THE OFFICE OF ATTORNEY GENERAL:

STATE OF MICHIGAN:

SITUATION...

While driving on a rural end of the roadway on Thursday morning, I saw an
infant car seat on the side of the road with a blanket draped over it.

For whatever reason, I did not stop, even though I had all kinds of thoughts
running through my head. But when I got to my destination, I called the 
Canton
PD and they were going to check it out. But, this is what the Police advised
even before they went out there to check....

"There are several things to be aware of... gangs and thieves are now 
plotting
different ways to get a person (mostly women) to stop their vehicle and get
out of the car.

"There is a gang initiation reported by the local Police Department where
gangs are placing a car seat by the road... with a fake baby in it.... 
waiting
for a woman, of course, to stop and check on the abandoned baby.

"Note that the location of this car seat is usually beside a wooded or 
grassy
(field) area and the person -- woman -- will be dragged into the woods, 
beaten
and raped, and usually left for dead. If itbs a man, theybre usually
beaten and robbed and maybe left for dead, too.

DO NOT STOP FOR ANY REASON!!!  DIAL 9-1-1 AND REPORT WHAT YOU SAW, BUT 
DONbT
EVEN SLOW DOWN.

"IF YOU ARE DRIVING AT  NIGHT AND EGGS ARE THROWN AT YOUR WINDSHIELD, DO 
NOT
STOP TO CHECK THE CAR, DO NOT OPERATE THE WIPER AND DO NOT SPRAY ANY WATER
BECAUSE EGGS MIXED WITH WATER BECOME MILKY AND BLOCK YOUR VISION UP TO 
92.5%,
AND YOU ARE THEN FORCED TO STOP BESIDE THE ROAD AND BECOME A VICTIM OF THESE
CRIMINALS.

THIS IS A NEW TECHNIQUE USED BY GANGS, SO PLEASE INFORM YOUR FRIENDS AND
RELATIVES.

THESE ARE DESPERATE TIMES AND THESE ARE UNSAVORY INDIVIDUALS WHO WILL TAKE
DESPERATE MEASURES TO GET WHAT THEY WANT."

Please talk to your loved ones  about this. This is a new tactic used. 
Please
be safe.

Get started NOW -- SEND THIS  MESSAGE TO ALL YOUR FRIENDS AND LOVED ONES TO 
BE
CAREFUL AND AWARE OF EVERYTHING AROUND THEM SO AS NOT TO BECOME A VICTIM..

WARNING  # 2

Some knew about the red light on cars, but not the 112.  It was about 1:00
p.m. in the afternoon, and Lauren was driving to visit a friend. An UNMARKED
police car pulled up behind her and put his lights on. Laurenbs parents 
have
always told her never to pull over for an unmarked car on the side of the
road, but rather to wait until they get to a gas station, etc.

Lauren had actually listened to her parents advice, and promptly called 112 
on
her cell phone to tell the police dispatcher that she would not pull over
right away. She proceeded to tell the dispatcher that there was an unmarked
police car with a flashing red light on his rooftop behind her. The 
dispatcher
checked to see if there were police cars where she was and there werenbt,
and he told her to keep driving, remain calm and that he had back up already
on the way.

Ten minutes later 4 cop cars surrounded her and the unmarked car behind her.
One policeman went to her side and the others surrounded the car behind. 
They
pulled the guy from the car and tackled him to the ground. The man was a
convicted rapist and wanted for other crimes.

I never knew about the 112 Cell Phone feature, but especially for a woman
alone in a car, you should not pull over for an unmarked car.  Apparently
police have to respect your right to keep going to a safe place.

*Speaking to a service representative at Bell Mobility confirmed that 112 
was
a direct link to State trooper info. So, now itbs your turn to let your
friends know about 112.

You may want to send this to every woman (and man) you know; it may save a
life.

This applies to ALL 50 states - PLEASEPASS ALONG TO FRIENDS AND FAMILY, IT 
CAN
SAVE A LIFE....
