of course not...or jaywalked...nothing...

Exactly, it could have been any of those things. No one should be posting license plate numbers and descriptions of the car and girls on here when they don't even have all the facts.

Secondly, this was not a life threatening emergency. Call the non-emergency number if you feel you must report it. Calling 911 diverts critical resources from situations which truly are a matter of life and death. Non-emergency 911 calls tie up the lines for callers who legitimately do need immediate, urgent help. In fact, in most states, calling 911 for anything other than a true emergency is illegal and can result in criminal penalties to the caller.

If your neighbors are having a loud party late at night and you need the police to come talk to them, use the non-emergency number. If someone is breaking the leash law and letting their dog roam free, call the non-emergency number. On the other hand, if someone is breaking into your house or having a heart attack, or you just witnessed someone getting shot, you call 911. See the difference??

It's also probably not a good idea to go all vigilante and follow the car. Do the police know you intend to do that?

If you suspect illegal happenings in your neighborhood call the police that is what they are there for! Call 911 or non emergency depending on how you feel the situation calls for. If the police think you should have not called 911 they will warn you. Let them be the judge....

Really? 911 for someone smoking? You must be kidding. Use the non-emergency line, please.

I'll bet you have been speeding in your car at least once in the last week...so you should probably call the cops on yourself
Or, at a minimum, if you are going 45mph in a 45mph zone, and ANYONE passes you, you should definitely write down their license plate number and call 911...

OR, alternatively...

you could just relax...and chill out...that's what those girls were doing

(EDIT) ... Damnit...Piiilot posted damned near the same thing I did exactly. Guess I should have looked at the previous comments

so if nobody called and everyone let it be, then we would have a city full of potheads and everyone can just get away with it.

If I see that car in my neighborhood, you bet your bottom dollar, I will follow the car and give a follow up report if I see where they live... YES, I am that kind of a person...

Wow, you might try a Xanax...or 10.

personally I see no issue with calling the police on kids hanging out in my neighborhood smoking pot... its not like I am chasing them around on a dark rainy night while on the phone with 911...

Sounds like you should of joined them. You are way to uptight and need to relax.

illegal drug use is something that should be condoned by silence. Biggest favor you could do with the teenagers is to get them busted while they are minors and teach them a lesson under the leniency that is given to minors rather then letting them completely jack up their life by getting busted as an adult....

Or, alternatively, you could mind your own business.

or not... crime in the community is everyone's business... do you turn the other way when you see a robbery or an assault? crime is crime...
