CHP said officers will focus on drivers who are speeding from 6 a.m. on Saturday to 5:59 a.m. on Sunday.

This comes with the Speed Prevention Campaign, as officers plan on increasing patrols and concentrating on drivers who are endangering lives. CHP said its goal is to save lives by lowering unsafe speeds.

According to officials, unsafe speeds are a significant factor in nearly 30% of statewide crashes.

CHP’s Statewide Integrated Traffic Records System showed 2024 data that consisted of more than 116,000 crashes being a direct result of unsafe speed. The result of those crashes killed nearly 500 victims and injured over 48,000 people.

CHP officers issued almost 243,000 citations for speed-related violations in 2025, including:

More than 47,000 citations for speeds over 100 mph

Nearly 183,000 citations for exceeding 65 mph

Over 12,000 for driving too fast for the current road or weather conditions

CHP said that the officers operating the specially marked patrol vehicles have issued over 2,700 speeding citations to date.

CHP is reminding drivers to make safe choices when they’re behind the wheel.
