        "text": "For urgent situations—like finding the nearest ER in Austin or reporting a hazard in Denver—spoken search can be useful but shouldn’t replace emergency numbers.\nVoice assistants can mishear critical details under stress.\n\n**Key factors:**\n- Potential for speech errors while panicked\n- Network dependence; no service means no search\n- Assistant limitations around emergency routing\n- Local emergency infrastructure and response times\n\nIn a crisis, call emergency services directly first; use spoken search as a secondary tool for directions or nearby pharmacies once you’re connected to help.\nPractice simple, unambiguous emergency phrases so you’re less likely to stumble when it matters.",
