What do they do? Drive around in nice Tahoes and waste tax dollars? What is their main task?

Most of it is DOT enforcement with commercial traffic, 18 wheelers and such. They also serve as primary law enforcement and security in state buildings and complexes.

Weigh station enforcement. Considering all the bitching about 18 wheelers damaging roads and all the threads bitching about 18 wheelers flipping over, seems like you would be in favor of them.

But as usual, the OT is pure ignorance.

I believe they also handle enforcement on the CCC, now that we no longer have tolls.

You don't have to give private contractors medical, vacation, sick, and LASERS.

DPS is for when shite goes down.

Another level of dicks, these guys are a special kind of a-hole, I have dealt with them on occasion. They are mad they aren't state troopers, but still feel the power they think then badge brings

Harass truck drivers that have done nothing wrong - these guys are the worst of the worst. There's a special kind of douchebag required to fill the ranks of the DPS.
