It's the number for fender bender car crashes in Oklahoma City, too. You can find the number for "non-emergency" calls in the phone book, but on the two times in the last five years I had occasion to call them they did not seem to find anything unusual about calling them for fender benders. I think they have their dispatching function more or less integrated with 911.
