Our state's Department of Transportation has their own law enforcement division called Motor Vehicle Enforcement ( http://www.iamvd.com/omve/index.htm ).
Is this type of officer common to all state's department of transportation? What difference would this type of officer be from say state trooper?
When I have asked other officers I know (city, county and state levels) they said that if I was looking to get into law enforcement that was not the career path to take. I assume there are obvious job description differences between a DOT officer and a city officer that you might not get exposed to the same types of calls that might be a factor.
Just curious to know if there are any on here and would like to get your opinions about your job or who all has worked with them in their daily activities.
Thanks.
