"Yuppie 911" causing problems...

for rescue agencies: personal locator beacons make it (too) easy to summon help.

My personal perspective is that these gadgets allow for ill-equipped and inexperienced people to push beyond their capabilities. Frivolous use of the system should be met with stiff fines as well as compensating all costs associated with the "rescue."
