How well do you remember the series premiere of Highway Patrol?
Stolen cars, police blockades and precise communication. All part of the plot for the first episode of Highway Patrol.
Before there were 155 more episodes, there was the first one. Highway Patrol was on television from 1955 to 1959. In the process, the police procedural drama inspired several other similar shows years later.
Can you remember the series premiere titled "Prison Break?"

How well do I remember Highway Patrol? Let's put it this way...it ran from 1955 to 1959 and I was born in 1962...
7/8. Big fan of this show. I would get up at 4:30 am to watch before I went to work. Great cars and you could certainly tell the men from the women.
MrsPhilHarris grabbed the trophy and this thrilling movie for us to watch. Congrats MPH

Wow! They should have done for you like that old program "This is Your Life" She and an old teacher you had plus others show up and it is on camera. They bring them on stage one by one and you're so surprised. They talk about you and everything. You get gifts. Maybe even an old boyfriend shows up from HS --This Is Your Life AWL! 🤩

2/8. I think I've seen about one episode of Highway Patrol in my entire life. Still enjoy taking the quizzes.
The only other show I have ever seen Broderick Crawford in other than Highway Patrol was in one episode of Land of the Giants. He played an evil scientist creating a giant sized robot.
4/8, I have seen most episodes but don't even remember the premiere. I'm not sure if I saw that one.
5 out of 8. I can’t get how Broderick Crawford got away with his rapid fire dialogue deliveries. I call him the Fast Talking Man!😂
