Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. While riding the beat, Jon wears black gloves.

Answer: False

Jon's gloves are actually a lovely shade of tan or beige, perfect for the seventies. Ponch wears black gloves, most clearly illustrated in the opening sequence.

2. In which of the following episodes were eleven people actually killed in one massive automobile pile-up?

Answer: M.A.I.T. Team

M.A.I.T. stands for Multidisciplinary Accident Investigation Team a CHP task force assigned to investigate accidents when officers of the CHP are involved. Ponch and Jon were members of this team that investigated this most horrific and deadly crash that ever occurred on the series.

3. In the episode "Dead Man's Riddle", Ponch and Jon recreate black ice on a mountain road. How do they do this?

Answer: On a cold morning they pour water on the road, and run a large fan on it to create ice.

How you could artificially recreate ice by blowing a fan on water is pushing the limits of physical science. Unfortunately, the fan would probably dry the water up, thus no ice..

4. In the episode, "The Strippers," Jon's girlfriend's car is stolen. What kind of car was it?

Answer: Red Mercedes

Yes it was a Mercedes. The other three vehicles can actually be found in 3 other prominent series from the 1980's. The Red Ferrari, Thomas Magnum's car in "Magnum P.I.," KITT the black Trans Am from "Knight Rider" and the Orange Charger, Bo and Luke's beloved "General Lee" from the "Dukes of Hazzard."

5. Which star of the series "Happy Days" played the lead singer of a rock band in the episode "Rock, Devil, Rock?"

Answer: Donny Most

Donny sure made the "most" of this part.

6. What prominent item did Jon wear on his belt, that Ponch did not?

Answer: Nightstick

Jon faithfully wore his nightstick on his belt, while Ponch inexplicably left his on the side pack on his motorcyle.

7. What was the name of CHP mechanic Harlan Arliss's dog?

Answer: Dave

Dave the dog, who hung out in the CHP garage, had a particular dislike for Sergeant Getraer. Getraer often told Harlan to "get that dog out of here."

8. Officer Sindy Cahill conducted scientific research on her fellow officers. What was she researching?

Answer: biorhythms

In the episode appropriately titled "Biorhythms" Sindy Cahill charted out her fellow officer's biorhythms to see which days would be physical and emotional "highs" and "lows." The concept of biorhythms was fairly popular in the late 1970's and 1980's as people attempted to gauge which days they would be at their physical and emotional best.

9. What actor played Sergeant Joseph Getraer?

Answer: robert pine

10. And finally for all the hard-core fans. In "CHiP's" slang what was a "clouder?"

Answer: a car thief

Clouder was slang for a car thief. How this word relates to car thieves is far beyond this "CHiP's" fan. Anyone with information leading to the arrest of the definition please send it to the quiz creator!
