Highway Patrol, after Sea Hunt, was probably the most popular and influential of the dramatic series offered to station in the 1950s by syndicator Ziv TV . It starred Broderick Crawford and was famous for its location shooting, in the still very studio-bound early years of television (it was produced from 1955-1959), and like most Ziv series, had its repeats syndicated for many years afterward.
