Waze, Apple Maps, and Google Maps are great at getting you around an accident. But they can only help once you're already in your car — already in it. Detours works before that. The moment CHP logs an incident on your route, you'll know — while you're still home, still deciding. Leave a few minutes early. Take the street you know. Or just grab another coffee. Think of it as the app you check before you open your navigation app.
Live California Highway Patrol incidents statewide — crashes, hazards, fires, and more — with push alerts tuned to your route and schedule.
Built on the official CHP CAD feed, refreshed every 60 seconds, with smart alerts that respect your time.
Every active CHP incident plotted in real time, with zoom-aware clustering so you always see the full picture.
Get notified for incidents on your highways, within your alert area, at the severity level you choose — only when you want them.
Plain-language descriptions of what's happening, generated from the full CAD log by Gemini — no decoding jargon required.
Draw a polygon around your neighborhood, commute, or any area you care about — alerts only fire inside your zone.
Create named alert windows by day and time — commute hours, weekend mornings — and silence everything else automatically.
Track any incident on your Lock Screen and Dynamic Island — live updates as the CAD log evolves.
