Hi all,

So i saw on the news today another CHP FCV rear ended while on a Caltrans detail. It got me wondering, how many CHP vehicles a year on average are wrecked or just hit by motorists? It seems to be a common occurance nowadays. With these high speed rear end collisions, you're losing not only the car, but also all the radio equipment in the trunk, not to mention injury to the officers.

Not sure how many, but I bet it is pretty common. When I went on my ride along last weekend there were about 3-5 cruisers that were completelly totalled.
