My previous phone used to pocket-dial the emergency services annoyingly often, and it's very not fun getting called back by the police to discuss why you're dialling and hanging up on emergency services multiple times over.
This automatic emergency call is fine, but they really do need to minimise the number of false positives, which it looks like they've taken good steps towards.
I had the same issue with my old Galaxy s7. Let me tell you, seeing "911" on your caller ID when youve been smoking all evening is not a fun experience.
