Gets pulled over. Grabs cops gun. Shoots cop 3 times. Has access to both vehicles. Jumps over wooden fence and runs through a muddy field. Um, yeah. He's a mental case.
Filmed near my house in the 60’s. The shore line on PCH (Pacific Coast Highway State Route 1) isn’t as deep anymore. The ocean is right up against the highway. My 3rd grade football coach was a CHP sergeant who got me into law enforcement. He actually patrolled that area. Thanks for sharing that video. Very awesome!
Michael Craig they don’t dredge that part of the county. (The beach is washed away by south moving currents) mainly because of the security due to restricted accessibility to the military base I the same location. So the state place jetty rocks along that portion of the roadway. You can see that exact location on google maps Point Mugu rock on Pacific Coast Highway.
I worked armed security and law enforcement for 30 years. There are two things that really stand out in my memory from training. 1, there is no such thing as a "routine stop". 2, I had a really gruff sergeant who always said "be suspicious of everybody". The lessons from this vintage training film still apply.
Some of those old guys from pre-Miranda days were far too tough to be called "Cops". Nah, they were "Coppers". And if you threw a rock at 'em, they'd pick it up and throw it back at ya. If they were gonna pull ya over, they'd come up beside your car, roll down the window (from the driver's side even), and growl; "Grab some curb, asshole."
I worked LE and the line "Be suspicious of everybody" is what got some officers in trouble. The "Us against them" mentality that a lot of LE have just makes life harder. Be aware of your surroundings in fine but, treating the public like the enemy is nuts. Growing up we had a town full of I think I'm tough cops that in reality were true ass holes. Couple of them committed suicide and I wonder why ? One beat his wife in the neighboring town and got to keep his job, I saw him go out in cuffs. Talking to folks the right way got me great results in life in general. Look at how so many cops are getting sued in Civil Rights violation cases and losing qualified immunity. The job does not make you god. You are still human with faults like anyone else.

knoodelhed Yes, that’s absolutely correct. Next month on April 6th will be 50 years since that occurred.

R.I.P. to Allen, Frago, Gore & Pence! Good Day to You!
The Newhall situation was such a sad incident. I remember I was in my preteen years, and at the time I lived only about 20 miles from where it happens. If I remember correctly though didn’t that situation involve The officers being overpowered? I doubt this film could have affected the outcome of that. Or am I wrong?

So many thoughts go back to 1979 when I was in training. How much better the training is today. Situational awareness is a huge part of my life to this day.
My younger brother(48) and I(50) have always been a little on the outlaw side of things. But make no mistake. When the police pull one of us over, its "yes sir", "no sir", full respect, all the time. You get to go on living, so does the cop, and you sometimes gain their respect. Which establishes a mutual relationship within the community. And thats a good thing. I really don't like cops at all and many of them are downright abusive or even murderous. But if you follow their directions, its your best chance of going home uninjured. Thats all the cop wants too. We DO need them. God bless.☺🙏👍
Officer Walker did turn his back for just a second, he should of been more alert and move his gun to the other side out of reach. One fatal mistake cost him his life.
Well done training film for the early 1960s. Many of the points are still valid. The producers emphasized having a survival mindset and pointed out the trap of thinking stops are "routine." Bench seats are a thing of the past and not too many prisoners would be transported in a front seat nowadays, but I'm sure it still happens in some locals. Love those old Dodge Polara police cars...
Notice that there is no screen or plexiglas barrier, and seat belts weren't *required* until a few years later. An unguarded man in the back seat could choke an officer with the cuffs (if in front, or he was flexible enough to pull his legs through). A second officer could sit behind the driver to guard the prisoner (and keep his firearm away). The only alternative to a "cage car" was an eye-bolt in the floor (and manacles) or other fixed point anchor.

@@jerimiahstephens8580 you would be surprised at what you can get into. The driver could have just killed his wife, boss, etc. Someone is in the vehicle may have just robbed a bank. I had a partner that get hit by a car daydreaming and not concentrating. That driver did it because of a suspended license. A simple suspended license! You never know what kind of day a vehicles occupant has had. Suicide by cop happens. Intoxicants can be present. No, there is no "routine" traffic stops because all stops are for violations/crimes, either state, county, municiple or federal. So every stopped vehicle is a violator. Differing levels, but an offender still. I wont even get it into the environmental factors, other traffick or just someone else thinking it's a good time to shoot a possibly distracted officer.
The squad cars in this video are 1961 Dodge Polaras. They still had the fins, where the '62 Dodge 880s were finless, the rear nearly identical to that year's Chrysler. Jay Leno features one of these '61 Polaras on one of his episodes of Jay Leno's Garage. They were equipped with 383 cu. in. (6.3L) V8s, topped with a 4-barrel carburetor. They put out some 325-330 horsepower, giving the Polaras top speed in the 130-135 mph range.
In this day and age, your best to not trust any woman. From completely dressed to bare naked. Prisons are full of the nuts that people entrusted. Times have really changed. Women going to prison has risen over the years, and for serious charges. Oh, let's also look at DIVORCE rates. It's lose, lose.
I went through the academy in ‘68 and they were still showing this film, but it got the point across. Security holsters didn’t come on the scene for us until the mid ‘70s.
Wow A gem this training CHP movie, so pleasant to see old wheeled logo on the cap, the sound of old siren, and the typical ( wich always questionning me ? ) unique red light ( in the search light ) why no rotating light on the polara dodge roof ? like they have later....so many thanks for sharing this rare archive....take care buddy : )
papa bits I guarantee all of you that anymore than 2 vehicles is not a major procedure in most places. If you get pulled over, and record is clean, most likely the cop that stopped you will be the one by himself. You cant have a buddy on every single stop.
@@johnkaiser353 Your right, todays standards are militarized police. What were they thinking back then only giving them revolvers & maybe a shotgun? I mean, he doesnt even have body armor with 10 other tactical devices.
I don't hold the need to be suspicious of all on the job against cops. The problem is when they go from suspicion, passive, to pre-emptive assumption, active, and when they keep themselves so "honed", they never turn said suspicion /off/.
And they wonder why were nervous when we get pulled over. it's not because we are guilty of something. It's because we know the Cop is Nervous! Armed and Nervous is Not a Good Combo.
I don’t think anyone questions why people are nervous when they get pulled over. But there’s a difference between “I just got pulled over, hope I don’t get a ticket” nervous and “I’m trying to hide something or pull something” nervous. I don’t think it’s unreasonable to be a little nervous when you have no clue who you’re pulling over, what they have with them or what they’ll do to get away.
Richard Dupuis, when is the last time a cop was shot? Whens the last time a cop shot some one? What is the ratio? Do cops ever get in troble for murdering an unarmed person? Whats the ratio of criminal charges sticking compared to being found not guilty? The answers are suprising.
Nice old training film by chp , nice to see those uniforms and classic patrol cars from 50s - 60s period, reminds me of the period when tv series highway patrol was on with Broderick Crawford
This video although old it still offers excellent common sense moves, The latest updates to it would be when you pull behind your suspect vehicle turn the nose of the patrol car out about a foot this will help you from being pinned between the two cars if another vehicle slams into your back. also you must press your finger print to the rear of suspect vehicle in case needed to establish that is in fact the car that the stop was made upon.We have lost far to many Brothers thru routine boring stops nation wide. Your family wants to see you that night. Keep Safe, Always expect the unexpected.
When firing a hand gun always make sure to push your hand towards the direction of the target while pulling the trigger it defentanly improves accuracy.
I imagine that police had a hard time with biker gangs throughout the 50s and early 60s. A retired officer told me he had to stop his partner from almost shooting a Hells Angel biker in the late 50s after he tried to wrestle him down unsuccessfully. The officer wrestling him finally pulled out his gun because the biker wouldn't let up. The officer had a hard time getting a hold of the biker's long hair and his partner remembers that he smelled very badly. I think biker gangs didn't fear fighting with officers until it became a felony some time around the mid 60s.
@@sirronnorris3343 We have constables in some parts of the U.S. I was in Texas one time and saw "Constable" on the side of one of the police SUVs parked in a residential area.
One fatal mistake that I see modern cops make is that they don't keep their firearm side free. They also tend to stand in front of the driver or passenger side window. It's called the death funnel for a reason. Complacency kills folks. Stay frosty out there!
This was the era of the widow maker holster, with a simple clasp or a button loop that was not difficult to access by a BG. Also today, cop cars orient themselves at a slight angle to the left when pulling behind a stopped car. Also, those neckties might’ve made for a easy way to grab a cop... wow different days
I came on the job in 1968 and worked some of the worst commands in NYC. Back in those days young officers didn't see the inside of a Radio Car until you had a minimum of five years OTJ. closet you got to one was when one went by with a boss in it. New Officers worked foot posts solo year round, rain and snow (yeah, foot posts) around the clock. When you needed help on a late tour you banged your coka-bola on a curb and hope the guy on the adjoining post heard it. No radio's, call box's, (they were either wired with incendiary devices), sometimes bombs. You had your issue weapon a 6 shot .38, cuff's, a jack your nightstick and your memo book. You took no shit or you never could go back on that foot post. You gained respect just with the uniform, didn't need patch's, graphic's name tags or "business cards." The job was 100% different than what you see and hear today....Having just been discharged from the USMC I was spit and polish mentally and physically....we earned the title Officer. I could go on and on but there are few of us left that would understand. Stay Safe Brothers and Sisters.....TRUST NO ONE !!!
At 9:49 into the video, please note the drivers-side taillight on tye officer's car. I believe that was the 1961 model Dodge, where Dodge changed the location of its taillight. If you notice the officer's taillights, they're located in the UPPER concave molding of the fender. I don't remember if it was government-mandated, but, in mid-year production, Dodge changed the taillight location to the BOTTOM of the vehicle, just above the chrome bumper. The reason they did that is because the taillight in the original design couldn't be seen from SOME angles by drivers who were following behind. If you go to Google Images and type in 1961 Dodge, you'll find images of BOTH production models - those with taillights in the upper fender location, and, those with taillights in the lower location. It wasn't illegal to own the model with the "dangerously-located" taillights. And, as far as I know, Dodge never had to issue a "recall" to have the original taillight location changed. Just thought I'd throw that fun fact out there.
I looked up images of ‘61 Dodge Polaras. Most of them had their tail lights on the fenders, around the corner from the rear, with a fin separating those two areas. If you were behind the car but too far to the left or right, you would only be able to see the tall light on the side closest to you, you can see this at 10:05. I saw only one image of a ‘61 Polara where the tail lights were moved more inboard to the rear and protruded more. They were more visible that way but didn’t look as cool!
If they’re under arrest cuff them first and then search their person. Never do it as was instructed here. The longer someone has to think about it the more likely they are to try to flee or fight before those cuffs go on.
Today's police officers act nothing like this. They dress up in BDUs, wear tactical gear, and act like everyone else is the enemy. They look and act more like soldiers than cops. Part of this is because the public has declared war on the cops. It's always been a dangerous job, but in recent years it has become even more so. That's because more people are willing to shoot it out with the cops over stupid stuff. You can't blame the police for having the mindset that they have.
@@BigDogCountry That's true. I was in law enforcement in the 90s. I told those who wanted to contest the citation that there's a reason for the court date on the ticket. When a police officer decides to write you a ticket, just take it and don't make a bad situation worse. If you don't agree with the ticket, take it to court. We don't do trial by roadside here, and arguing with the cop only raises your blood pressure.
Yet your job isn’t even in the top 15 of dangerous jobs. How many times have you lied under oath to get the charges to stick? Fudged the numbers? Beat your wife? If traffic stops are so dangerous, stop doing them for victimless crimes. You are a terrorist
@@joelregier6766 well i dont know. My nations police hasent shot anyone dead in years. And yours shoot people becuse they dared to move their hand a few inches closer to a pocket. our police also carry guns. But they use their tasers and words more happily.
Instructional films around the globe used to be so excellent - clear, direct, purposeful and wise. Look for them by industry or years. See how communication can be done with effectiveness and reality.
In the early 80's a drivers education class showed a similar video. The bar the perp stumbled out of was literally across the street from the school in Sacramento. Only filmed decades earlier before the school was even built
That guy was smart! After shooting the Officer, he took off running in a giant 10,000 acre, flat, featureless, open field with no concealment. No one will ever find him.
There wasn't a Officer Fred Walker with the CHP killed in the line of duty. However, there was a Trooper Fred Walker with the Missouri Highway Patrol (different circumstances) killed December 3, 1941. Wonder if they played off that.
Dig those grips on their service revolvers! That's when you could tell when an officer was a dedicated shooter. Now days... It's sad they don't have the luxury of the personal touch.
1:25 Remember, felons...always push your gun forward as you shoot. The added velocity will give your bullet that little extra "oomph" needed to penetrate any body armor.
There's still plenty of strips of road with nothing in California.

PS - There is no such thing as a “routine” traffic stop. Lesson one from the Academy.
No one cares
Darren Bennett you speak for all citizens? Yeah, didn’t think so. Move along sir.
There really is though. I understand why they train officers that way but the majority of the time it's business as usual
@@jerimiahstephens8580 you would be surprised at what you can get into. The driver could have just killed his wife, boss, etc. Someone is in the vehicle may have just robbed a bank. I had a partner that get hit by a car daydreaming and not concentrating. That driver did it because of a suspended license. A simple suspended license! You never know what kind of day a vehicles occupant has had. Suicide by cop happens. Intoxicants can be present. No, there is no "routine" traffic stops because all stops are for violations/crimes, either state, county, municiple or federal. So every stopped vehicle is a violator. Differing levels, but an offender still. I wont even get it into the environmental factors, other traffick or just someone else thinking it's a good time to shoot a possibly distracted officer.

The squad cars in this video are 1961 Dodge Polaras. They still had the fins, where the '62 Dodge 880s were finless, the rear nearly identical to that year's Chrysler. Jay Leno features one of these '61 Polaras on one of his episodes of Jay Leno's Garage. They were equipped with 383 cu. in. (6.3L) V8s, topped with a 4-barrel carburetor. They put out some 325-330 horsepower, giving the Polaras top speed in the 130-135 mph range.
Try the Ford LTD's back when Cobra Jet engines and did about 160mph.
That's a lot of Horsepower
Fun Fact: 1 Horsepower = 745.7 watts or the mechanical power to lift 550 lbs. 1 foot in 1 second
My 68 roadrunner had a 383 with a carter 4b.😊
Those old California uniforms are stunning!

Never trust a woman in a low-cut top while on a traffic stop.
She thought she could get out of it with the big old smile in fluffing her hair
well if she had popped a few buttons might have been diffearant story
Female driver " I thought that you guys didn't give pretty girls tickets"
Cop " We don't, sign on the ticket on the line please"
In this day and age, your best to not trust any woman. From completely dressed to bare naked. Prisons are full of the nuts that people entrusted. Times have really changed. Women going to prison has risen over the years, and for serious charges. Oh, let's also look at DIVORCE rates. It's lose, lose.
Most likely you won't see that particular situation today due to sex discrimination accusations.
DPS don’t ever trust big but and a smile , that girl is poison
Unfortunately there are officers who ignore these tactics today over 50 years after this training film was produced
I went through the academy in ‘68 and they were still showing this film, but it got the point across. Security holsters didn’t come on the scene for us until the mid ‘70s.
Officer Walker did nearly everything right but there was one detail that was a fatal mistake. He wasn't left-handed.
Wow A gem this training CHP movie, so pleasant to see old wheeled logo on the cap, the sound of old siren, and the typical ( wich always questionning me ? ) unique red light ( in the search light ) why no rotating light on the polara dodge roof ? like they have later....so many thanks for sharing this rare archive....take care buddy : )
By the first one minute he made a mistake, he didn’t call for 30 other cops for a traffic stop
Be mindful of the period when this training film was made. Don't apply today's standard to yesterday's situation.
papa bits I guarantee all of you that anymore than 2 vehicles is not a major procedure in most places. If you get pulled over, and record is clean, most likely the cop that stopped you will be the one by himself. You cant have a buddy on every single stop.
Safety in numbers
@@johnkaiser353 Your right, todays standards are militarized police. What were they thinking back then only giving them revolvers & maybe a shotgun? I mean, he doesnt even have body armor with 10 other tactical devices.
@@warriorofthewastelandrv9480i dont think there was really any proper body armor back them
Indeed, horrifying , real-life scenarios. Excellent training video.
My department still uses this training film today
I don't hold the need to be suspicious of all on the job against cops. The problem is when they go from suspicion, passive, to pre-emptive assumption, active, and when they keep themselves so "honed", they never turn said suspicion /off/.
The only person missing is Broderick Crawford (think: HIGHWAY PATROL, available here on RUclips!).
He was out having a donut and some Jack straight up!

And they wonder why were nervous when we get pulled over. it's not because we are guilty of something. It's because we know the Cop is Nervous! Armed and Nervous is Not a Good Combo.
If people stopped shooting them, maybe they wouldn't be so nervous.
@@thebeagles2025 Well if they stopped shooting us maybe we wouldn't be so nervous.
I don’t think anyone questions why people are nervous when they get pulled over. But there’s a difference between “I just got pulled over, hope I don’t get a ticket” nervous and “I’m trying to hide something or pull something” nervous. I don’t think it’s unreasonable to be a little nervous when you have no clue who you’re pulling over, what they have with them or what they’ll do to get away.
Richard Dupuis, when is the last time a cop was shot?
Whens the last time a cop shot some one?

Nice old training film by chp , nice to see those uniforms and classic patrol cars from 50s - 60s period, reminds me of the period when tv series highway patrol was on with Broderick Crawford
[in a loud and gruff tone] *"TWENTY-ONE - FIFTY to Headquarters . . . "* Unforgettable phrase from that TV series.
This video although old it still offers excellent common sense moves, The latest updates to it would be when you pull behind your suspect vehicle turn the nose of the patrol car out about a foot this will help you from being pinned between the two cars if another vehicle slams into your back. also you must press your finger print to the rear of suspect vehicle in case needed to establish that is in fact the car that the stop was made upon.We have lost far to many Brothers thru routine boring stops nation wide. Your family wants to see you that night. Keep Safe, Always expect the unexpected.
It is also a good idea to put your hand on the trunk lid and make sure that it is locked 🔒
When firing a hand gun always make sure to push your hand towards the direction of the target while pulling the trigger it defentanly improves accuracy.
Also helps if you say; "Take THAT, and THAT, and THAT, ya rat fink!"
Makes the bullets come out faster, too.
I imagine that police had a hard time with biker gangs throughout the 50s and early 60s. A retired officer told me he had to stop his partner from almost shooting a Hells Angel biker in the late 50s after he tried to wrestle him down unsuccessfully. The officer wrestling him finally pulled out his gun because the biker wouldn't let up. The officer had a hard time getting a hold of the biker's long hair and his partner remembers that he smelled very badly. I think biker gangs didn't fear fighting with officers until it became a felony some time around the mid 60s.
When you get pulled over dont say : hey problem, what seems to be the officer?
Or here in the UK, "Good Consternoon Afterble...".
...and don't say "ossifer" either!
@@sirronnorris3343 We have constables in some parts of the U.S. I was in Texas one time and saw "Constable" on the side of one of the police SUVs parked in a residential area.

Video from the sixties and still a very good teaching tool today. The Karate chop to the nuts was classic...
If a suspect is actually able to pull that off and get away like in the video, he deserves his freedom lol.
This is a excellent training video, keep these videos coming.
One fatal mistake that I see modern cops make is that they don't keep their firearm side free. They also tend to stand in front of the driver or passenger side window. It's called the death funnel for a reason. Complacency kills folks. Stay frosty out there!
That 61 Polara is gorgeous.
This was the era of the widow maker holster, with a simple clasp or a button loop that was not difficult to access by a BG. Also today, cop cars orient themselves at a slight angle to the left when pulling behind a stopped car. Also, those neckties might’ve made for a easy way to grab a cop... wow different days
I came on the job in 1968 and worked some of the worst commands in NYC. Back in those days young officers didn't see the inside of a Radio Car until you had a minimum of five years OTJ. closet you got to one was when one went by with a boss in it. New Officers worked foot posts solo year round, rain and snow (yeah, foot posts) around the clock. When you needed help on a late tour you banged your coka-bola on a curb and hope the guy on the adjoining post heard it. No radio's, call box's, (they were either wired with incendiary devices), sometimes bombs. You had your issue weapon a 6 shot .38, cuff's, a jack your nightstick and your memo book. You took no shit or you never could go back on that foot post. You gained respect just with the uniform, didn't need patch's, graphic's name tags or "business cards." The job was 100% different than what you see and hear today....Having just been discharged from the USMC I was spit and polish mentally and physically....we earned the title Officer. I could go on and on but there are few of us left that would understand. Stay Safe Brothers and Sisters.....TRUST NO ONE !!!
Pretty sure even back then most of them used clip on ties for that reason
@@redtra236
Yep, always clip on.
That's why cops wear a tie bar to keep their tie down.
At 9:49 into the video, please note the drivers-side taillight on tye officer's car.
I believe that was the 1961 model Dodge, where Dodge changed the location of its taillight.
If you notice the officer's taillights, they're located in the UPPER concave molding of the fender.
I don't remember if it was government-mandated, but, in mid-year production, Dodge changed the taillight location to the BOTTOM of the vehicle, just above the chrome bumper.
The reason they did that is because the taillight in the original design couldn't be seen from SOME angles by drivers who were following behind.
If you go to Google Images and type in 1961 Dodge, you'll find images of BOTH production models - those with taillights in the upper fender location, and, those with taillights in the lower location.
It wasn't illegal to own the model with the "dangerously-located" taillights. And, as far as I know, Dodge never had to issue a "recall" to have the original taillight location changed.
Just thought I'd throw that fun fact out there.
I looked up images of ‘61 Dodge Polaras. Most of them had their tail lights on the fenders, around the corner from the rear, with a fin separating those two areas. If you were behind the car but too far to the left or right, you would only be able to see the tall light on the side closest to you, you can see this at 10:05. I saw only one image of a ‘61 Polara where the tail lights were moved more inboard to the rear and protruded more. They were more visible that way but didn’t look as cool!
What in the heck is raising out of the bushes at 10:13 ? It made me laugh, I thought of some alien spying, lol.
I saw that too. I watched that part a second time, and I think it's an oil well.
Adam Ellis To me, a closer appearance to California Sasquatch.
Yeah, I believe that's an oil well pumping.
Yup, oil well pumping...good eye chief!
And when he gets home, he is suspicious of his wife and children, and his next door neighbors too. Unending, limitless distrust of everyone.

If you really pay attention you would notice Ponch and John riding in the background on their motorcycles.
I heard their theme song as they ride by. I noticed.
The California highway patrol vintage uniforms were way better than the modern uniforms.
If they’re under arrest cuff them first and then search their person. Never do it as was instructed here. The longer someone has to think about it the more likely they are to try to flee or fight before those cuffs go on.
Who would have thought being a road pirate was dangerous
And this is why we have the police culture we have today
Today's police officers act nothing like this. They dress up in BDUs, wear tactical gear, and act like everyone else is the enemy. They look and act more like soldiers than cops. Part of this is because the public has declared war on the cops. It's always been a dangerous job, but in recent years it has become even more so. That's because more people are willing to shoot it out with the cops over stupid stuff. You can't blame the police for having the mindset that they have.
@@jimfinigan1681 You're not gonna win an argument on the side of the road.
@@BigDogCountry That's true. I was in law enforcement in the 90s. I told those who wanted to contest the citation that there's a reason for the court date on the ticket. When a police officer decides to write you a ticket, just take it and don't make a bad situation worse. If you don't agree with the ticket, take it to court. We don't do trial by roadside here, and arguing with the cop only raises your blood pressure.
I wouldn't be a police officer today. As dangerous as it was in the 90s, it's even worse now.
