NO EXCUSE
And you ask for a ‘Break?’, C’mon. Your speed of 131MPH combined with the fact you have NO LICENSE just earned you a car jail impound for 30 days. Sign here for you citation.
#instantkarma #nobreaks #slowdown #chp
And a close second today is this violator, at 121 MPH on you guessed it, #hwy4. But fortunately, this driver receives similar treatment as the last.
In all seriousness, these types of speeds are truly dangerous to all motorists on the road. We are out enforcing all laws on all roads, especially Hwy-4, to take these dangerous drivers off the roadway. Whether you see us out and about or not, we are always out there working, 24/7, no days off. #slowdown #1stistheworst #2ndisjustasbad

BACK AT IT AGAIN
110MPH… and then car unregistered for 2 years?!
That results in a citation for the 110 MPH and vehicle impounded until the registration is taken care of. Sign here please.#instantkarma #slowdown #allroadsallcodes #chp
Thank you, the drivers on Hwy 4 make it very unsafe for normal folks to get around, so thank you!
Definitely. They scare me
Agreed?! I just moved to Antioch and I can’t believe how dangerous they drive on Highway 4 it is very scary to think this is the Autobahn in Germany or something
I once lived there and they are the worst drivers. They’re so anxious. I don’t miss it at all
I have panick attacks while driving horribly lit highway 4 to and from work with drivers who speed to over 100 miles ph and will ride your bumper fiercely if you’re driving the speed limit in the slow lane
U go Denise its char hru doing
Hwy 4 is the worst that I have seen in a very long time. I travel on that hwy every week, and it’s scary at times.
Denise why don’t you just stay in your basement like most good Karen’s do!!!!
Chp needs to do a lot more enforcement, judging by the driving seen on California highways every single day!
And chances are, no insurance. So when these drivers crash into you, injure you or your passengers, kill you or your child. There will be no recourse for liability.
Maybe if we ever see CHP with cars pulled over we’d believe it, but i nevet ever see anyone of these excessively speeding cars stopped. Never, ever, ever in years now.
I promise you I have seen an incredible amount of these types of reckless speeders. Usually on the weekends or around the holidays. These fools think the highways are a video game. Nope. Usually they come in 2 cars playing a game of chicken and at a high rate of speed. Unfortunately people die and sometimes innocent people just trying to change lanes not knowing these fools are coming up behind them very quickly.

Man, it happened this weekend on hwy 4 coming down from bay point to concord. Chicken as it is called. So Scary.
If it’s true. Chp
My own respect and apologies. I thought those racing idiot never got cacht.
Your funny, or blind! I live in Rodeo, a stone throw from Hwy 4. I see and hear CHP, Sheriff and local police on Hwy 4 all the time. And on 80 as far as that goes. The problem is that the CHP, Sheriff’s Dept. and PD are so under funded that they don’t have the assets to deal with the problem.
Maybe cutting back on the amount they make after they retire from their police job will help fund the police and chp?
All due respect for the law enforcement.
Do you hear what you are saying do you look at the people doing this dumb**s driving then you will see the problem
My son elijah was killed on 2/27/20 . he was crossing the street in a schoolzone in front of deer valley hs. In antiioch. A 23. Guy hit my son at 85 mph on lone tree way a street not hwy. Then he stoped after400ft my son rolled off his car the guy ran him over a 2 nd time killing him. He was only 11 tge best son anymom could ask for. On this guys ig he recorded himself in fhe 2016 vhevy cameroo ss he hit my son in he recorded himself going 100+ on 2 seprate bideos on lone tree and deer valley. It has been 8 mo since he killed my son 2 weeks ago the guts dad bought his son a vrand new 2020 dodge sportscar faster than tge other with some kind of speed pk attached. The same night he got this car tgey went home smoked drank then went out i saw him racing another car dwn deer valley as if he didnt just killy son. With speeds thst hugh u could imagine what was left. They told me my son sas destdoyed i wasnt allowed to see his body they could only show me half his left arm out of his whole body and even his arm wad messed up. So please everyone drive safe be aware and lets not have anymore of these tragedy s
Why is he not locked up?
I am so sorry for your loss of your boy. I can’t even imagine the heartache you felt, THEN THE RAGE of seeing that same person racing down DV Road right afterwards. I hope he rots in jail. Disgusting!
You would think that, with all of the fatal accidents on that road, police would be patrolling, sitting and watching the area, but evidently not. My heart breaks and rages with you, mama.
Heartbreaking… sorry for your. Loss. There’re no words.
May GOD comfort the bereaved as only He can! In the name of JESUS! We have the blessed hope! “For the Lord Himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. Wherefore comfort one another with these words.”
1 Thessalonians 4:16-17!
Your loss is unimaginable. I know this doesn’t mean much, but I offer you my deepest condolences as one father to another.
No jail time? Dear God im so sorry for your loss and pain and just to see them casually speeding down the same street that your child life was taken on would devastate me. Fyi my daughter was murdered in 2020 also so I understand your pain
I am so sorry for your lost ! My heart goes to you and your family!
If some any one hurts my kids I will kill that muthufucker I will go to jail just to get his fuckn ass I’m sorry for your lose
I’m so sorry to hear that. Prayers to you. No parent should have to go through that ever. I hope someone other than me stop and read your reply. Everyone please slow down. That is heart breaking just reading I’m sorry.
Dear Kelli:
My heart breaks for you ! This is indeed tragic and beyond any mother’s comprehension to bear the grief of losing a child. I will pray for you and your family, Kelli. Your son is with God in heaven. He in the loving arms of Jesus. I pray for you to have peace.
Love,
Barbara in Concord
Kelly, I’m so very very sorry to hear of your loss. Truth to be told these new car are designed to drive fast. Putting a fool behind the wheel of these new cars are a big mistake. My prayer for you and your family goes with the deepest sympathy.
Yeah I bet they were a different nationality I can tell by that I won’t say anything but we all know that people were doing that they don’t care but all eyes matter right yeah right
I’ve seen all races doing these sort of things.. You don’t have to expose your racism here.. This is a serious issue
Racist much?!?
Yup,”different nationality”…not the one that blew up a federal building,killing 168….not the one that killed 58,shot HUNDREDS in Vegas…not the one that shoots up churches ,school children,nightclubs….not them,huh…redneck
Put a sock in it. Nobody is talking about racism here. Let’s stay on subject.
Welcome to Commufornia. Please turn the lights out when you move to a state with common sense which isn’t so common.
Yeah you win the dumbest comment of the day award.
Where are you moving to?
Kirker Pass should also be patrolled more. I worked at St. Demetrius Church at the early voting site two weeks ago and I will never go back there again. A bunch of lawless maniacs frequent that road.
Kirker Pass is a very poorly designed road and should be redone and shaved off at the top People drive like crazy up and down that road. It’s like a no-mans-land out there and should be monitored by the traffic police more closely
It’s not only on the highway it’s on the streets… these guys are fascinated with loud pipes and that’s what gave them the urge to speed
And the marijuana they are smoking while driving. LOCK THEM UP!!!
Yes I can believe the officer I have seen vehicles fly by me doing possibly a 100 mph or more. But let me not signal in a lane change our move too fast in a lane change I will get a ticket I am pretty sure it has happened before. And no I am not a Saint I have broken the law a few times speeding but not at a high rate of speed that some of the individuals passing me by are going. So CHP do your job were counting on you. Highway 4 is off the hook.
Lol f**** a speeder, get all of em in the carpool , I see like 40 daily.
I truly see chp doing their job all the time….hey if those people can’t respect other people’s life…and they have no licence or registration ….or insurance…..I think those guys got off with the minimum.! Bcuz I’ve been living for about 40 something years,and I’ve lost or have a permanently disabled friend or family member….all bcuz of HIGH SPEEDS!! I THINK THAT CHP BE HELLA COOL TO BE LETTING US DRIVERS OFF WHEN WE ARE GOING 70 OR 75MPH…IT DOESN’T MATTER WHAT’S YOUR REASON IS ACCIDENTS DO HAPPEN EVERYDAY….AND YOUR SPEED REALLY MAKES THE DIFFERENCE IF yOU AND THE OTHER PERSON WALK AWAY WITH YOUR LIVES OR DIE! SO I AM GLAD CHP IS CATCHING THESE PEOPLE OFF THE CA ROADS EVEN IF ITS FOR A FEW DAYS OR WEEKS..BECAUSE HONESTLY….YOU ARE ONLY GETTING TO YOUR DESTINATION A FEW MINUTES SOONER AT THOSE SPEEDS…IF A FEW MINUTES IS WORTH ANYONE’S AND YOU DISREGARD YOUR OWN SAFETY…THEN I THINK YOU SHOULD NOT BE ABLE TO EVEN HAVE A VEHICLE…. BOTTOM LINE …..HATS OFF TOO CHP… Y’ALL DOPE….#SLOWURASSDWN#HWY4#HATSOFFTOCHP#LIVINGINGLDNST#NOTCALIFORNIADREAMING#SLOWDWNANDHAVEGLDNDREAMS
Good job CHP for keeping Hwy 4 in check, but please keep a vigilant eye out too. It’s not just the highway, side streets, rural streets and hilly residential have to deal with the same thing. Please keep an eye out for these spots: Beat Creek Road, Alhambra Valley Rd, Willow Avenue, San Pablo Dam Rd, etc these darker windier roads see the most reckless driving because it is not the main highway and most speedy motorists know they can get away with it. Again, keep up the good work but the job is not over
Sincerely
-a concerned East Bay cyclist
So what I’m a older . These younger guys aren’t doing nothing compared to the 1960s . Like the one’s complaining on this Post . Ford Fairlaines , Camaro super sports, Chevelle 396 SS, Dodge chargers Plymouth hemi cudas , oldsmobile 442, Mercury comets Mercury cougar eliminator and the list goes on stop complaining.. this used to be a free country! Young cars reading this the older generation are hypocrites now . But I will say this slow down take it to the track .the local circuit had affordable run nights save your money and take it there . For older heads like myself shut up your were a fool at one time also .
I have neighbors who have more then couple of cars that are unregistered for more than couple of years and of course they drive those cars on daily basis. And no one can do nothing. There is no complains for that kind of stuff. Meanwhile I sweating my ass off trying to pay for registration and insurance for my car….
The law on speeding needs to BE posted. Over 20 miles ahour , tickets are severe . But I dont know ??? I thought along time ago it was a felony. So it should be a criminal act. So go to jail , lose everything. Vehicle, license, do time . Stop this insanity, speed KILLS.
Hi! I thought we weren’t being ticketed for registration because I sent in the money but never received my papers! Also no one will talk with me about it at DMV! I wrote them letters and got no response. So I just drive around with my receipt. HOPEFULLY if I’m stopped, the police are able to reach DMV! This world is shutting down! Even after THIS episode is over. All we have is time to love and live for JESUS! MOST have an inkling that SOMETHING DIFFERENT is going on. JESUS is Returning SOON to carry HIS BRIDE away in the RAPTURE! ALLELUIA! It won’t be LONG! GET SAVED and STAY READY!
No one is stepping out of the sky any time soon. All we have is each other.
Go put on your foil hat, you have too many channels coming in all at once. You can’t go from talking about your DMV issues to the coming of Jesus in the same comment and think you sound completely rational.
If we enforced the speed limit everywhere, this would be a very wealthy state. In Europe I got tickets twice for 3km per hour over the speed limit. That’s 1.8 mph over. So like going 67mph in a 65 mph zone.
I’m so sorry for your loss of your son. That’s a horrible experience .please visit jw.org for comfort from the Bible hope for our dead love one.
I live in hilltop village , you should see how they drive on hilltop drive and hilltop circle, and blum drive, they go through red lights, and stop signs. a high rates of speed. Hit them in the pocket with fines as high as drunk driving and impound fees of 1,000. dollars a day
I’m afraid to drive the Co Co County freeways! Good job but long way to go in order to make a difference!
More Police presence is needed most definitely, People are speeding, because of this very reason. Speeding especially on HWY 4 from Concord to Hillcrest exit, and beyond.
Please keep up your efforts. I regularly travel Hwy 4 and I-680 through San Ramon Valley. It is incredible the amount of cars racing and surpassing 100 mph. As others have reported, it is not just on the freeways. It’s occurring on a regular basis on city streets as well. The lack of regard for others safety and well-being is sickening.
Defund the police n this is what happens
The problem is everyone is in rush and don’t Care about anyone but them self’s.
Thanks for keeping us safe on highway 4. It was getting very uncontrolled and scary especially between Bay Point to Antioch area. There are some highway patrol officers from Alameda County on Vasco Rd that seemed unessaary over there and would be more effective helping you in highway 4.
need to do that on the I-80 between Berkeley in Vallejo.
I seen car speed everyday!!
These foolish drivers are a danger to the road as well as the other law abiding drivers and families that are out there. Keep up the good work. Thank you for serving us!!
With all respect, I thought the CHP did not care about Highway 4. So many crazy drivers every day. I’m begging you to please continue doing that.
Thank you.
