It's School Bus Safety Week!

School bus safety starts with all of us. This School Bus Safety Week, the California Highway Patrol reminds drivers to slow down, stay alert, and watch for children getting on and off the bus.

Always remember these important safety tips:
✔️ Stop when a school bus activates its flashing red lights and extends its stop sign.
✔️ Never pass a stopped school bus when its red lights are flashing.
✔️ Watch for children near bus stops, in school zones, and crossing the street.
✔️ Always follow posted speed limits and stay focused behind the wheel.

Every child deserves a safe ride to and from school. Let's do our part to protect our youngest passengers and keep our roads safe.

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

California Highway Patrol stands with those affected by breast cancer, including survivors, those currently fighting, caregivers, families, and loved ones.

Throughout the month, you may notice CHP officers wearing a breast cancer awareness pin on their uniforms; a small symbol of support for those affected by this disease.

Breast cancer can impact anyone. Early detection can make a difference, so take the time to know your risk, schedule recommended screenings, and encourage the people you love to do the same.

Together, we can raise awareness, show support, and remind those facing breast cancer that they are never alone. 💗

🎉 The Area would like to recognize and thank Office Technician, Tabitha Gonzalez for her 11 years of dedicated service to the Westminster Area!

Throughout her tenure at our office, she has consistently demonstrated exceptional dedication, professionalism, organization, and genuine care for everyone. Her kindness, diligence, and attention to detail have made a lasting impact on our office and the people who have had the privilege of working alongside her. While we’ll certainly miss having her in the office, we couldn’t be more excited to see her take the next step in her career as a CHP Dispatcher! 📞🚔

There’s no doubt that the same commitment to excellence she has brought to our office for the past 11 years will make her an outstanding dispatcher. We know she’ll continue to make a difference and find great success in her new role.

🚔Congratulations to Westminster's own Officer Paddon who was hand selected by the Commissioner's Office to be assigned a CHP Camaro!

Officer Paddon has proudly served the people of California for over 20 years and has left a long-lasting impact on the communities and Area Offices in which he has worked. Over the course of his career, Officer Paddon has worn many hats, from serving as a Community Oriented Policing Officer (COPS), Field Training Officer (FTO), Accident Investigation Review Officer, Explorer Advisor, and Motorcycle Officer. Officer Paddon has been recognized by the Los Alamitos Chamber of Commerce, as well as the Commissioner's Office for his proactive enforcement efforts.

The Camaro will be hitting the road for the Maximum Enforcement Period this evening! Our Camaro is just one of many tools our officers use every day to identify unsafe / impaired drivers and prevent serious or even fatal crashes.

Slow down, drive sober, and stay alert. Help us keep everyone safe!

lt 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 extends its deepest condolences to Officer Liles' family, friends, loved ones, and all who served alongside him. His dedication to public service and commitment to protecting the people of California will not be forgotten.

🚧WORK ZONES REQUIRE YOUR FULL ATTENTION🚧

When driving through highway construction and work zones, slow down, stay alert, and eliminate distractions.

Watch for changing traffic patterns, reduced speeds, workers, equipment, and stopped or slowing traffic. Leave extra space between vehicles and be prepared to adjust as conditions change.

A few extra seconds of attention can make a critical difference.

Slow down. Stay focused. Drive safely.

It's National Child Passenger Safety Week.

Keeping California's youngest passengers safe is a responsibility we take seriously.
During National Child Passenger Safety Week, the California Highway Patrol reminds parents and caregivers to make sure children are properly restrained in a car seat or booster seat that is appropriate for their age, height, and weight.

CHP officers across California are committed to educating families and promoting safe transportation practices to help protect children on every trip.

Before you hit the road, take a moment to check the seat, check the harness, and buckle up.

Interested in getting your car seat checked or installed for free? Contact your local CHP office.

It's National "See Tracks? Think Train" Week!

Do you know about the blue-and-white sign at every railroad crossing? 🔵⚪

The Emergency Notification System (ENS) sign provides a phone number and crossing ID to report problems or emergencies at the crossing.

If your vehicle gets stuck on the tracks, get out immediately, move away from the tracks, and call the number on the sign to get trains stopped. If you can't find the sign, call 9-1-1.

Know the sign and know what to do. Stay safe around railroad tracks.
