About San Diego SAFE Mobile Call Box and 511

SAFE operates and maintains a system of freeway and rural stateway highway call boxes. It forms a network of cellular telephones, designed especially to link the County's more than 280 miles of freeways and 255 of rural state highways to the California Highway Patrol (CHP). For motorists in distress from automobile failure or other non-emergency roadside incidents on San Diego freeways and highways, assistance is available by calling 511 on your cell phone or by pressing the red "call" button on a call box. Motorists will be directly connected to a trained dispatcher, who will ensure that the appropriate roadside services are made available.

Testimonials 

"I was driving alone when my car stopped working. I decided to call 5-1-1 because I heard about it on a TV commercial. The operator was very rapid and cooperative. 5-1-1 is an awesome service for anyone who needs help on the freeways. I would recommend this to anyone who needs help.”
- Motorist on Interstate 78

  • Keep track of your gas fill-ups and mileage. A pad and pencil is all it takes. Notice that your gas mileage worsens? Tune-up time!
  • We have our last car hidden! Good luck! Hint: FSP http://t.co/yDfaZiFb #giveaways
  • See a tanker at your gas station? Come back another time because the turbulence caused by the underground filling can stir up sediment.
  • What are your new year's resolutions? What about: make sure to get an oil change in a timely manner. #newyearsresolutions
