911 calls are only allowed to be made public in certain states. Some states have banned the broadcast of 911 calls replacing them with written transcripts. There are sites such as 911 Dispatch Magazine which has links to various 911 calls available online.
According to the National Emergency Number Association, about 240 million calls are made annually. According to the FCC about a third are wireless, but in many communities half or more of the 911 calls can be wireless. That puts the range of wireless 911 calls daily at 219,178-328,767.
The routing of 911 calls from mobile phones varies depending on jurisdiction. In general, 911 calls from rural areas along major highways are routed to the highway patrol. Calls in major cities are usually routed to the 911 call center.
