CRO Message Board / Contact Instructions
The South Carolina Highway Patrol has an established
recorded line dedicated for media use only. The media line
enables news outlets to retrieve recorded messages on
traffic incidents and collisions worked by the Highway
Patrol. Media may also leave voice mail messages for the
Community Relations Officers in the seven Troops throughout
the state. The goal of the phone system and message board is
to provide the highest level of service with accessing
information and contacting the appropriate CRO on call.
