If you think it does, great, waste your time and call just to tie up the line for people who might be calling for actual emergencies just so that you can ride around on your high horse.

And that's exactly the problem. Everyone assumes that someone before them has called. Unless there's police on the scene, how are you to know that they have in fact been called?
I'm not talking about an accident where you can see that everything is under control - people walking around, checking out the damage, etc.
So if you see a wrecked car on the road and no sign of emergency vehicles or other good samaritans, you'll just continue driving without giving it a second thought?
