Law enforcement types of issues (bank robbery, burglar alarm, vandalism, etc) in unincorporated areas are handled by the sheriff's dept.
"Traffic" types of issues (DUI, traffic accident, traffic control, animal blocking the road, etc) in unincorporated area are handled by CHP.
There are always exceptions, but that's the general rule of thumb.
