This is a clip from a California Highway Patrol commercial (1962). It shows busy California highways, car traffic flow by day, and a black and white police patrol car waiting on the side of the road. Close up of stereotypical cop, police sun glasses looking in his mirror for traffic and speed violators. Freeway onramp signs read “Bicycles, Motor-Driven Cycles Prohibited” and “Vehicles over 6000 pounds Prohibited.” Motorcycle cop in police uniform, helmet and sun glasses waits on side of road. A 1960’s car speeds by and the policeman chases after him, sirens blaring. The car and motorcycle pull over to the side of the road for a routine traffic/ speeding violation.
