The British are yet again trying to be smarter with their 999 number when the rest of Europe uses 112?

#2 just like #3 said, the UK 999 is the oldest emergency number in the world, dating back to 1937. So why didn't the rest of europe follow suit?
Also, I don't know about all European countries, but in Poland you have
999 Ambulance
998 Fire
997 Police
So you can't say the rest of Europe uses 112.

#14 I was thinking the same thing, on a rotary phone why make it the longest possible combination to dial during an emergency. That's government for you! LOL

#14 and #15, it took the same amount of time to send the number 9 as it did the number 1 on a dialled system because of the analogue manner of the electrical pulses down the line. It may have seemed longer because the dial itself needed to rotate further but it didn't make any difference in the actual connection speed.

#17. That is incorrect. The rotary dial phone produced a series of make and break pulses which were sent down the line to the exchange and operated a mechanical switch for each digit dialled. You can see each switch in action here, note how larger value digits take longer to travel up the switch stack. So 999 did take longer to connect a call than 111 for example, but the difference is just a couple of seconds.
