112 stories

"The German concept of car plates is as follows:
1. Letters to communicate the city, area, county : in my case AC for AACHEN
2. one or two letters - no special meaning but often used to communicate the initials of the owner.
I have not used these initials but the letters EU to communicate my mission, hobby - whatever you may call it it - this is to actively contribute to the development of a unified Europe where people can live in freedom and peace.
3. 2 or 3 numbers - to differentiate plates with same letters I have chosen '112' because together with the letters 'EU' this is the most important means of communication needed in my business - which fire , rescue and medical emergency response.
112 as the European emergency call number could and should be a European success story - and I am convinced that all together we can reach this goal.
Summary: (free adoption of words from J.F.Kennedy) Do not ask what your country does to make '112' known Ask yourself what you can do to make '112' known"
