Police departments in the United States and Canada see it as central to their role
that they respond to calls for help as quickly as possible. This ability to react fast
has been greatly improved with the aid of technology. The telephone and police
radio, already long in use, assist greatly in the reduction of police response time. In
more recent times there has been the introduction of the ‘911’ emergency system,
which allows the public easier and faster contact with police, and the use of police
computer systems, which assist police in planning patrols and assigning emergency
requests to the police officers nearest to the scene of the emergency.

The idea of selling rooms to sleep in to travelers developed from the custom of
gift-giving. In the days when most travelers rode on horses or in small carriages
that were pulled by horses, a tired traveler was welcomed into a private home.
There, after a meal, the homeowners would offer a place to sleep and care for the
animals. The traveler, in exchange, was expected to bring news and to tell exciting
stories. When the guest left, he would give something of value to the family. It was
only a matter of time before the business of keeping a hotel, with rooms to rent a
food to buy, became a common kind of business.
