Highway Patrol takes a rare fly-on-the-wall glimpse into the working lives of the Australian police officers who spend their days striving to keep our roads safe. From high-speed chases to violent conflicts and catching speeding drivers to investigating crash scenes, officers of the Victoria Police Traffic Units spend each day on the front line. As part of their job, the officers featured in Highway Patrol deal with drunken hooligans, defiant law breakers and simply lazy motorists, and they all pose an equal danger to themselves and others. These officers are passionate about their work, proud of what they do on a daily basis and invite viewers into their remarkable world in Highway Patrol.
When a car crashes a stop sign trying to run from police, it hurtles head on into the path of a bus. The driver has plenty of reasons to run - but will he avoid a serious smash?
Officers Damien O'Brien and Steve Mottram come across a woman who prefers her dog to ride shotgun, rather than her boyfriend. Also, Sergeant Ash Hodges nails a man in a hurry to get to a family lunch.
When police pull over a car for being too low, they meet a man who reckons he's Australia's biggest bogan. And with a range of bad tattoos and a penchant for cigarettes and cars, he may be right.
A learner bursts into tears when he's caught without a fully licensed driver beside him. And if that's not bad enough, he then follows it up with a full blown toddler-like tantrum.
Drunk drivers are all too common but the man Leading Senior Constable Rob Jones pulls over is beyond belief. He's so off his face, he's vomited all over his car - and partly down himself!
Take a man, a cat and a funny hat and what do you get? Unfortunately, as Leading Senior Constable Pete Henry discovers, anything but a child's bedtime story.
Three tradies lose their cool when Senior Constable Brown impounds their ute. But they're not the only ones to lose their ride - a man who lies about his ID also loses his vehicle to a tow truck.
Sergeant Trevor Poulton witnesses the biggest burnout of his career when a car suddenly lays down rubber right in front of him.
Combine a pub with two lawbreakers and it's double the trouble for officers Oakley and Zeffert. A motorbike rider tries an unorthodox escape - and it's soon clear why he's running from the cops.
George likes a traveler between work and home but when he gets pulled over by the cops, they find dozens of empty tinnies in his footwell. So will he pass his breath test?
Looks like something went completely wrong!
