CHP Traffic uses only public information published by the California Highway Patrol. Please note that the CHP does not publish information about certain types of police actions (most notably, police pursuits), and therefore CHP Traffic cannot provide information on these incidents. SantosApps and the CHP Traffic application are not associated with the California Highway Patrol in any way. Always use common sense: never use this or any other application while driving.
