I was a cabby in the early 1970s. Our dispatcher wasn't a hot brunette. He was a fat, older guy who smoked too much. When I complained to him that the calls he was giving me were short trips with small or zero tips, he told me up front that I was still living at my parent's house and didn't need the money as much as the older cabbies who had rent or a mortgage to pay and a family to support.

When a HWP episode starts off with a shot of a beautiful looking 1953 Mercury you know that its going to be a good episode, and this one sure was with a great plot and suspenseful throughout. I noticed that they did not show either the cab driver getting shot or someone finding his body, I guess they felt that it would be a little bit too realistic for the audience to watch back then. Innocent people though did occasionally get killed on that show.

Nothing is new in Hollywood. I thought the movie, “Collateral”, starring Tom Cruise was an original movie but it looks like they got the idea for the movie from this episode of Highway Patrol. It was still a good movie though.

Normally in almost all of the episodes the California on the license plate is taped over, in this episode from 23:55-24:05 you can see CALIFORNIA, and to the right is the black strip that would be embossed with "56" which is the year that those plates began to issued by the DMV, and used until 1963.
