08 emergency number?

I ended a call on my mobile phone earlier today and put it back in my pocket locked. I took it out again 10 minutes later, and the screen said 'Emergency', and I could hear a voice. I hung up quickly in surprise and checked my 'Dialled Numbers ' list to find that I must have dialled 08 while the phone was in my pocket! I tried dialing 08 again and was connected to an Emergency service somewhere, I asked what it was and the nippy operator told me to cancell the call immediately. I never knew that there was an 08 emergency number, or that you could cal it with the handset locked. Anyone have any ideas on this??

Answers:
good one. i will remember this emergency number when i needed help so much. but how can i find them to talk to them personally rather than just dial the number and not able to speak to the phone operator? i am tired with this. i need to find them urgently. i also wish to send some greetings to them. time is running out.

Please, help me with this one. give me some good advise.

Thanks.
just pay the 50,000 dollar fine and get on with your life.
