Car and truck crashes in Chino Hills
Chino Hills traffic runs on SR-71 and Chino Hills Parkway, along with busy surface streets full of commuters and delivery trucks. Crashes on the freeways are usually investigated by the California Highway Patrol. Crashes on city streets are usually handled by the San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department, which provides police services to the city. Get the report number before you leave the scene, because the police report is often the first document an insurance adjuster reads.
Where a Chino Hills injury case is filed
