HERE COMES THE RAIN AGAIN! ARE YOU READY?

With the first of many winter storms heading our way, it’s easy to forget just how quickly driving conditions can change after months of dry roads and sunshine.

Now is the time to refresh your wet-weather driving habits and make sure your vehicle is ready for the road ahead!

✅ Check your windshield wipers
✅ Inspect your tires and tread depth
✅ Make sure your brakes are in good condition
✅ Buckle up — every trip, every time
✅ Slow down and increase your following distance

Don’t let complacency put you or someone else at risk. A little preparation today can prevent a tragedy tomorrow.

One heck of a career. One well-earned retirement!

Congratulations on an incredible run, Sarge! You’ve earned the opportunity to trade the radio traffic and daily grind for whatever adventure comes next.

Job well done, 15666! Enjoy the next chapter!

It is with profound sadness that the California Highway Patrol announces the line-of-duty death of Officer Brian Liles of the Visalia Area.

On September 28, 2026, at approximately 5:11 p.m., CHP Motorcycle Officer Liles was involved in an on-duty traffic crash on State Route 99, just north of State Route 190 in Tipton. He sustained critical injuries and, despite lifesaving efforts, succumbed to his injuries at the scene.

Officer Liles, 44, served the people of California for more than 16 years. After graduating from the CHP Academy in 2010, he was assigned to the San Jose Area and later served in the Hayward and Fresno Areas before transferring to the Visalia Area in 2019.

Officer Liles is survived by his wife, two children, his parents, and two sisters.

The CHP Fresno Area joins the entire California Highway Patrol family in extending our deepest condolences to Officer Liles’ family, friends, loved ones, and all who had the honor of serving alongside him.

Brian was not only a dedicated officer, but a beloved friend whose loss is deeply felt by those of us who had the privilege of knowing and working with him. His dedication to public service, friendship, and commitment to protecting the people of California will never be forgotten.

Rest easy, brother.

Labor Day weekend is here and so is CHP’s Holiday Enforcement Period.

Beginning today, Friday, September 4, at 6:00 p.m. and continuing through Monday, September 7, at midnigt, CHP officers will be out in force looking for impaired drivers.

If alcohol is part of your weekend plans, make sure driving isn’t. Designate a sober driver, call a ride-share, or arrange a safe ride home.

A DUI is 100% preventable.

Buckle up, slow down, put the phone away, and enjoy the weekend responsibly.

Have fun, make good choices, and let’s make sure everyone gets home safely.

🧻 Cleanup in the #2 lane!

A shipment of toilet paper fell from a delivery truck along highway 99 … so if you’re missing your rolls, it looks like we found it.

Just a reminder: Even if the box says “Just Drop It In,” that doesn’t mean you should drop it on the highway. It’s not literal!

Whether you’re carrying one roll or hundreds, no “emergency” is too great to justify an unsecured load.

Double Stop (noun)
dou·ble stop \

Definition: A traffic stop involving two or more drivers who independently make equally poor driving decisions at approximately the same time and place.

You guessed it… both were speeding together through traffic on Highway 99 at 90 mph in a 70 mph zone.

The speed limit isn’t a suggestion. Slow your roll.

Turns out the fastest route to the same destination was right past our Specially Marked Patrol Vehicle.
