@@drcurv HP was among the lowest-budget shows on TV at the time, which is why bloopers were so common. An encyclopedia could be written just about the re-takes they ignored with the cars alone! The '57 red Sunliner whose carburetor flooded just when the crooks were trying to make their escape - the 56 Buick that morphed between a Special 2-dooor sedan and a Roadmaster 4-door hardtop during a chase scene - Dan speeding off in a '58 Dodge and arriving in a '58 Buick - the bad guys driving a new, never-registered 1959 Chevrolet with California Manufacturer plates that were assigned to General Motors - the '58 Dodge with whitewalls and flipper wheel covers that sustained a bullet hole in the left rear tire, only to have it change to a blackwall with '57 wheel cover on close-up - cars that were used once, then never seen again, like the '55 Ford Mainline 4-door, the '54 Olds 88 2-door sedan and the '59 Ford Custom 300 4-door.

While Highway Patrol had technical and continuity flaws, it is still my favorite cop show. (I wish I still had my '54 & '55 Chevies and '57 Ford Fairlane 500.) Brings back memories watching it as a youngster. We all know that Brod had a booze problem but it still doesn't diminish his acting skills in HP and in such flicks as All The Kings Men, The Mob and Scandal Sheet to name just a few. Great innovations in technology, science and medicine have taken place since then. Socially, politics, etiquette and morality are in the dumpster. Although I was just a kid at the time, looking back, the 50's were cool.

Speaking of solid car days in the old days. Bonnie and Clyde were driving a 1930s Ford and were hit by multiple rounds of 45 caliber bullets from a Thompson submachine gun but survived. Bullets just dented the Ford. Don't try that today. Cops went out and got a BAR (Browning Automatic Rifle) It fires 600 rounds a minute of 30 caliber bullets. I saw that on the Netflix version of the cops who chased Bonnie and Clyde. The best scene was when one of the cops went into a store and bought shotguns and a BAR and other guns without a background check.

I watched this mainly because of the words "credit card" in the title. I didn't realise credit cards went back that far. Here in Australia we didn't have credit cards until the 1970's, although some large department stores had their own store cards a few years before. If you had a company car, your employer usually had done a deal with one of the fuel companies, and when you got fuel you filled out a paper form with carbon copies and gave the top 2 copies to the servo attendant. They posted off one copy and in due course they got mailed back a cheque.

Bank credit cards like BankAmericard (now Visa) may not have existed yet when this was filmed, but I think store and gas cards had been around for a while here in the States. Diners Club started in 1950 I think, but BankAmericard came out in the late '50s.

Those were the days of locally owned full service service stations. By full service I mean you knew the guy by name and they not only sold gas but tires. They changed the oil and did repairs on your car. Growing up, our neighbor owned a service station. Now you buy your gas at a convenience store and tires and repairs from a chain store.

telephotousa People were very naive then, they would not notice such things. I remember when this was on Prime Time. I remember when there were no paramedics. If you were Dead or Wounded either way, they most often called the Funeral Home, as they operated the "Ambulance service" as well. If you were still alive, they took you to the Hospital. If DEAD, to the funeral Home or the Morgue (if they had one) and the cops would make that determination. Where I live in Texas we have no "morgue" to this day. We have no "Coroner". the JP does that, and my DOG can be elected JP in Texas. Now for every fender bender car wreck they have they send two ambulances and FIRE TRUCKS when there is no FIRE. They wear this multi-million dollar equipment out like there is a bottomless pit of money out there now. OVERKILL. Probably the results of Lawsuits. There is no common sense left in the USA. BB
