On Wednesday, August 19, 2026, The California Highway Patrol was proud to attend the Senior Expo hosted by the Dales Senior Center located at White Park. We had a great time sharing our Age Well Drive Smart program with the community.

We spoke with those that attended about staying safe, confident, and independent on the road. Officers handed out resources and discussed practical "keys to driving safer and driving longer."

Keeping California's older drivers safe and secure remains a priority. Thank you to everyone who stopped by -- it was great connecting with you
