She seems like a great person. The reasons she listed are pretty much the same reasons I listed in my first oral board interview. Still waiting but I'm hoping. Going from classical guitarist, to math degree, to cop applicant. I'm probably not the most solid applicant 🤞

Ronald Crabtree You’d be surprised with who they hire based on their impressions of you from the interview and process alone! I know a Sheriff’s Department recruiter who hired a butcher because they impressed the deputy so much through the process.

I was in a small diner today called Dagwood's Cafe eating lunch when three KCMO police officers walked in to eat. As they waited for a table they joked around with the cook and waitress. They were all laughing and having a good time. They ended up sitting at the table behind me. I could tell that they were well known to all the people there. I live on the other side of the city and only eat there once a month or so. After I finished my meal my younger brother and I got up to leave. As I was paying the check at the counter I told the waitress that I wanted to pay for their meals. She totaled it up, I paid the bill and she asked me if I wanted her to wait until after I left to tell them. I told her no that I wanted to thank them for what they do and tell them myself. As we shook each of their hands they looked grateful for the hand shake and the thank you. Then I told them their food was on me. They were shocked. You see, my older brother was a CHP back in the 70's and after his passing, I get the pleasure of doing this in his honor.

Great vid. Having almost joined the CHP in 2007, I am envious every time I see a CHP Officer. It's a damn tough job, but I respect each and every Officer doing it. I never considered any other agency in LE than the CHP. If you're going to do it, go for the best there is, right? I only have one regret in life and it was passing on that opportunity, but I'm thankful I got to test in West Sac and go on some great ride alongs. it was an absolute honor and one of the best experiences of my life. Be safe out there and thank you for your service.

I was with the 1st Armored Division " Old Ironsides", 501st MP Company, O'Brien Barracks, Schwabach, West Germany, from 1/78 to 1/80. I served as a CHP officer from 1/81 to 1/02. Thank you for your service with the 3rd AD.

Absolutely wonderful job Motor Officer Handley. Without a doubt, the best job in the World. Nice to see you found a good fit on Motors. I loved riding as well and went thru Motor School at the Academy in '81. My favorite part of riding Motors was riding nice and tight tandem formation with another Motor...all about skill and concentration. About half way thru the video, it shows you putting your kickstand up...but somehow they got a reverse image and it shows the kickstand and shifter on the right side of your Motor...very strange looking as I have around 300,000 miles on Harleys. Keep up the good job you're doing and have fun in spite of so much negativity toward LE today. Very proud of what you've accomplished knowing the washout rate at Motor School has always run around 50% and sometimes as high as 75%. You either learn to ride well or the Sgt leads you off the EVOC course to the shed to turn in your Motor.

Chp strikes again with an awesome vid. Nice work!

Yes I agree and I especially enjoyed the footage of her riding on the Vincent St. Thomas bridge that spans the Los Angeles harbor and Port of Long Beach/Los Angeles. It's the only cool bridge in the Los Angeles area, and there is actually only one other water span in San Diego. The Bay area has so many cool bridges, but this is my area's one and only!

Thank you for your service Melissa!! More appreciated than words can say. Glad to have officers like you on the road with us!

Per Michael, Wow Melis! So proud of YOU for doing your best for all these years. You've always been number ONE with me!

Thanks Officer Handley. You rock!

Great Story Trooper Handley. Be Safe Out There On Those Interstates.

Mad respect to you for those years on a motor. Keeping yourself in great shape too to represent CHP. Stay safe.

God bless her & a lot of respect to her!

That's a tough ride for her. Motor cops are typically pretty macho dudes and that is cool too but she did it and this is super cool. Looks like she fit in well - lots of years at it made her great at the job. Way to go girl!

Thank you and your fellow officers for the jobs you do daily. I had 30+ years with the Ontario Provincial Police in 🇨🇦, and 19 years on motorcycle patrol. Also 17 years on our MC demonstration team (OPP Golden Helmets). Best damn job going. Be safe; ride safe & play safe.

This video gives me great pride. I love that this was created, thanks so much for sharing!

Congrats for 24 years and thank you for your service.

I completely support the CHP. Both my sister and brother in law are officers. I am grateful for the work you all do. Looking at the video background though I can’t but understand why so many people are leaving LA and California all together. It’s falling apart. I couldn’t stand LA anymore and finally took a leap and moved. If we didn’t love the ocean so much, we probably would have left the state as well. To the officers, thank you for making our highways safer. I know you can’t catch everyone and they seem to know it too. Be safe and know most of us are behind you even if the media says otherwise.

You have done an outstanding job. Thanks for helping to protect and serve the citizens of California.

the chp has evolved into one of the best depts there is--not so true in the past because of their leadership--they are awesome dept now,highly respected

She is a wonderful person and I have never met her............. Ride Safe Sistah.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE OFFICER MELISSA

Thank you for your service Motor Officer Melissa Handley. What an awesome accomplishment! Another time or another life I dreamed of becoming a motor officer, whether it was my love of the show, motorcycles or wanting to make the highways and byways safer (my dad is a lifetime truck driver) and heard crazy stories while growing up. You are needed out there. Thank you.

You are one of the few people, who have the courage to do that on motorcycle! Respect

My eyes watered. I love the California Highway Patrol. Soon I will join them to set another legacy and set an example. God willing and he gives me that opportunity to work for them here soon. God bless my future family, the California Highway Patrol.

What a great. Successful young lady 👍🏼

I went to Golden West JC in Huntington Beach in early 90’s to study Criminal Justice with the goal of working LAPD. Wanted Rampart or 77th Division. That was where the action was. People would ask why I wanted to wear a badge. My answer was because of the radio call. You never knew what the next call would be but damn good chance the call was going to be exciting.

Thank you for your sincerity! I am looking forward to making it into the academy and passing in 2020. Thank you for your service.

Very nice interview! I understand about your family’s feelings of being proud and worrying for your safety. My brother Ron was on CHP for nearly 40 years. In fact for awhile he was senior officer for the whole State just before he retired. He worked motors 15 years, also out of the South LA office. Then he transferred up to northern California and worked the roads in a patrol car until retirement in 2006. I have always been very proud of him, as I was of our father, who retired from LAPD after 30 years. I am grateful they safely made it to retirement. Though there were many close calls, as I am sure she has had.

Thank You for Your Service Officer Melissa Handly and like Your bike

I appreciate your service and passion for being the best you can be.

Thank you for your service! And much respect to you and ALL LEO'S out there from UTAH!

I work as a dispatch supervisor for Florida Hwy Patrol dispatching our troopers to accidents and other incidents. 30 years doing the job and have 7 more years to go. I love working with my troopers.

God bless you all and keep you safe.

Awesome video! I lived in SoCal for 22 years and always had great admiration and respect for the CHP. In fact, I even applied back in 1993 and passed the written test. Unfortunately, the vision restriction kept me from advancing through the process. I would’ve loved that job, just as you do. Thank you for your dedicated service, you are valued and appreciated. God Bless!

I wish to if the situation in the UK doesn't work out with moving and getting a job and applying, I know I need a motorcycle licence and Ik what's required it's just the commitment that is need. I've basically become a fan boy of CHP Motor units in Role play I'm always on the bike doing the job I wish I could. I thank all the men and women of the CHP for their personal sacrifice that they make day and night.

It took less time for me to cry on this video then most Iv'e seen like these and it took 6:49 to know that there are still people out there that wanted a carrier in there lives like you had and that my parents taught me as a young man. I'm in my 31 year working at my company and there is no better satisfaction then to give your all and to know that you've made a difference in the company you worked for proud for. And that your work and your time is so appreciated and that you can retire all be it sometimes hard to give up the job, live, rest and enjoy life to it's fullest. One day I will give up the sword of honer and pass it on and retire myself.

That’s my first phase FTO right there! Way to go Melissa!!

Melissa I am proud to see you recognized that there is a difference in a male officer and a female officers way of dealing with people and the situations they are in. It takes both to deal with certain situations and I can tell you really do care and are there for the right reasons. (SALUTE)

I had dreams of being a CHP Motorcycle officer as a kid but i chose a career with an east coast state police agency. It was cool but in my mind, i still think about being a CHP. Safety to all good Officers out there. God Bless

Super inspiring and motivating!!! Yes! 😍❤️❤️

Thank you Officer Handley for you amazing years of service. I grew up in the Los Angelos area and of course growing up my favorite TV show was CHiPs, unfortunately be cause of having 20/100 vision in my left eye prevented me from ever being a Police Officer in any capacityi. California, but in Indiana its not a problem, and I have been a Police Officer now for about 5 years, and love it. I will also agree females do see the world differently, and I love having a female Officer prespective on things. Stay safe out there.

I always thank LEO at every opportunity I get and always pray that they are save and I would be the first person to come and defend them whenever they are in any kind of trouble.....

You be safe officer an thank you for your service glad to see more women on motorcycle keep up the great job

GREAT VIDEO THANK YOU FOR YOUR SEVICE GOD BLESS ALL THE MEN AND WOMEN OF THE C H P ❤👍🚒
