View all 209 ReflectionsOf course all law enforcement officers are important to me but as I have said in the past, California's Highway Patrol Officers are on California's Interstates and highways. As a CalTrans Equipment Operator that worked the same territories, we find ourselves hand in hand with these brave men and women. As you probably know, CalTrans employees aren't real popular with a lot of the people driving on our States highways. At least three times while doing various tasks in the Eureka Crescent City area, I was harressed and threatened by irate drivers. In each case, a CHP Officer appeared to my relief and each time, the officer made it very clear that any attack on me was an attack on him and that they could be spending time in jail or worse and that their crimes were serious. We respect each other, we support each other and those officers make each and every CalTrans worker more secure and safer in everyway. They are truly our big brothers and sisters. Way too many of them are killed and injured each year. We honor them when they fall as they honor the 200 CalTrans employees that have been killed in the line of duty since 1930.
