Dan apprehends murderers with one backup officer and a snub nose .38. In today’s real world a SWAT team would be called in.

[@alphonsozorro7952]

And one gunman would be facing 10 or more iron-clad and over-armed SWAT members. But in a fair fight, the gunman always wins.The reason is SWAT pigs fear for their lives, while outlaws do not.

Investigations are funny. My dad's friend was an detective for almost 30 years in New Jersey and he often said that every investigation starts someplace. There is no substitute for good field work, a good lab and serious luck. When you hit a wall, go back to the beginning. And never forget the details. Details always matter if you're trying to catch criminals or get away with a crime. Who is that actress playing Joyce? She seems familiar. Silver Canyon is still out there.

After that the officer put in a letter of resignation.. but Dan Mathews thought he was making a mistake and looked into why one of his best officers was quitting.. He found out and helped the officer sort it out and the officer ulitmately stayed on as an officer.

And at 13:45, the woman pulls up in the Plymouth convertible. Does she exit from the driver's side? No, she gets out from the passenger side! And later when she tells Mathews she didn't see the guy who whacked her on the head because the living room was dark, but it was not dark at all. And later, she gets into the Plymouth to leave, and it's facing toward the street, not in the other direction, the direction she had previously parked it.

Probably two things: the super low budget show didn't have to pay for real law enforcement to control traffic on decent roads and they could let "DUI502" drive unused dirt roads, unfinished developments, etc. Remember a few episodes back in which the criminal was rolling stolen tires off the back of a truck at the pursuing HP car? Either the driver was able to dodge them or the tires bound to hit and damage the cruiser blipped out of view just before contact. This was not a case of Dukes of Hazzard in which empty shell car bodies were repeatedly destroyed from stunt crashes. Dirt roads and woods, farms and orchards were the best places Broderick Crawford.

Ive never seen any 55 Chevy's on Highway Patrol. .

[@randytaylor1258]

Once or twice, '55 and '56 -- new and in big demand. The '54 Fords were pathetic with flathead V-8s!

[@conniewojahn6445]

I have. At least I think I have. I prefer the 56. My parents had a two tone 57. I didn't care that much for it then. Rode like a fully loaded dump truck. It looks a lot better now in this show, although I doubt the ride has improved. Funny, I can't recall what my parents did with it. Traded it in for a green squishy looking Pontiac which showed up in their garage one day. They didn't ask my opinion. I'd told them they should have kept the 57 even though it was old in the 70s, but the Pontiac was so ugly I wouldn't be seen riding in it.

[@mikeflynn4635]

Do you think it was a gang killing? Ya think?

[@billhuber2964]

Duh 😲

[@Sootaroot]

No gangs were killed in the making of this episode.

[@Jack-xo2zp]

The writer of this script, Lou Huston, evidently believed that DMVs have engine block numbers on file.

What was that ?

Where is the donuts

[@randytaylor1258]

Coffee at that L.A. landmark with the giant donut on top would have been cool. Or Cokes at the original McDonald's?

I knew it. Back of head. .22?

[@frankmayer139]

The body was discovered by boys hunting for frogs? I was thinking Darrow got out of the reporter's car and was hopping mad so the boys had mistaken him for a frog and shot him.

[@Sootaroot]

Those boys should have been arrested for animal abuse. They probably went on to shoot up a school or church somewhere when they grew up. People who act violently in later life are usually found to have indulged in animal cruelty in their early years. Hence, Dan Matthews in Highway Patrol, frequently portrayed as trigger-happy, was never shown to have anything to say about animal abuse. All you gun lovers, prove me wrong: name one episode where the main character ever speaks up for animal rights. In shady corners all over the USA, a pin is heard dropping.

[@countryboy4542]

@@Sootaroot Apparently you've never heard of eating frog legs. The most they'd use would be a pellet rifle, not a firearm. They could also spear them or gig them, using a little piece of cloth on a string on a fishing pole. The frog bites it like a bug & won't let go.

[@randytaylor1258]

They were probably catching them to play with them, like minnows.

He should have said, not so fast, where in Europe exactly. It could have been somewhere ghastly.

From the looks of the daughters lips, I would say she had those botox injections done. Either way, they look sweet..autsss..;-))

Kenny Savoy Don't think they knew a thing regarding Botox in the early to late fifties. Actress was just a natural beauty.

I would love to have one of those old telephones!

[@conniewojahn6445]

You can get replicas, but the real thing is a thing of the past. I hated to give up mine. My sister told me it wouldn't work and the wiring inside the walls of my house was worthless. She told me to get a computer and a mobile phone. Now they're called cell phones or iphones and the computer is in the phone. I have a vtech land line phone that in no way resembles a cell phone but doesn't look like an old style phone, either. Cell phones and I don't get along. She laughs as me. At least I don't have to constantly plug mine in to charge it. And, I know where it is when I need it. Good luck finding an old style phone.
