My mom was born in 1933 and in the late '90s and early 2000s I was trying to convince her to get an emergency, pay-as-you-go cell phone to keep in the car, in case she broke down somewhere. By that point coin-operated pay phones had become really hard to find so she might not even have been able to call AAA to get a tow truck.
