CHiPs is an acronym for California Highway Patrol and is the name of a popular television program that ran on NBC from 1977 to 1983. "CHiPs" starred Erik Estrada and Larry Wilcox (and later Tom Reilly and Bruce Penhall) as CHP officers "Ponch" and "Jon" (and "Bobby" and "Bruce"). Each week, these officers were shown riding their motorcycles through southern California as they kept the Los Angeles streets and freeways safe.
