Mrs. Downey was an elderly woman who was always giving officers Baker and "Ponchereblo" a hard time. She drives a vintage 1954 Cadillac.
Mrs. Downey's first encounter with Jon and Ponch was when she was entering the Golden State Freeway on an exit ramp. She was pulled over and Ponch turned her car around for her. As thanks, she gave Ponch cookie crumbs to give to Jon.[1]
Not long after that, Mrs. Downey showed up at Central where she was complaining to Barkley about a $2 parking ticket she got from the LAPD. Nevertheless, Jon agreed to take care of it. He sent her on her way and she gave him a chocolate chip cookie. "Have a chippie, CHiPpie!" Jon paid the $2 fine himself rather than try to explain the difference between the CHP and LAPD. According to Mrs. Downey, "You're all in cahoots!"[2]
Mrs. Downey's third and final encounter with the CHP was when her car was stolen.[3]
