CHP to Conduct 24-Hour Maximum Enforcement Period This Week
CHP officers will monitor roads day and night as speeding-related crashes topped 110,000 in 2025, according to the agency.
- The California Highway Patrol will conduct a 24-hour Maximum Enforcement Period beginning Tuesday, running from 6 a.m. until 5:59 a.m. Wednesday to curb speeding statewide.
- CHP Commissioner Sean Duryee said "speeding continues to be one of the leading causes" of crashes; 2025 data shows officers issued over 491,000 citations as unsafe speeds caused over 110,000 crashes.
- Data shows unsafe-speed crashes resulted in over 68,000 injuries and more than 400 deaths in 2025, with the CHP operating day and night "emphasizing that there is no safe time or place to drive at unsafe speeds."
- In December, the CHP partnered with the Department of Motor Vehicles to launch Forwarded Actions for Speeding Tickets , which notifies the Driver Safety Branch to suspend licenses for drivers exceeding 100 mph.
- The CHP encourages drivers to slow down because "speeding often saves only seconds," noting this simple step protects drivers, passengers, and pedestrians sharing California's roadways.
