Florida has an investigative department, the Florida Department of Law Enforcement, analogous to the FBI, Highways, and Interstate Highways in Florida.
The function of the FHP is to the safety of State Roads, U.S. Still, they are not state police: the Florida Constitution stipulates that the chief law enforcement officer of a Florida county is that county's sheriff. They have the power to enforce Florida state law and make arrests. The FHP and its troopers are state law enforcement officers (LEOs), and as such are considerated police officers. Florida Highway Patrol officers are called State Troopers (not Highway Patrolman, as in some states). Troops are subdivided into 30 district headquarters, each commanded by a captain. A tenth troop handles the Florida Turnpike operations. Nine field troops are commanded by personnel with the rank of major, which are divided by regions geographically located across the state. The Bureau of Investigations is commanded by a major, while the other four bureaus are each commanded by a deputy director, a lieutenant colonel. *Bureau of Law Enforcement Support Services (EOC/domestic security, communications, lieutenant governor aide-de-camp, inspections, Auxiliary and Reserve, technology and communications, contraband interdiction, and traffic homicide) *Bureau of Special Operations (training and leadership, program planning, fleet and property, accreditation and policy, aviation, employee selection, recruitment, background investigation, polygraph, and budget)
*Bureau of Field Operations South and East (troops D, E, G, K and L) *Bureau of Field Operations North and West ( troops A, B, C, F, and H) David Westberry is deputy executive director.The director of the Florida Highway Patrol holds the rank of colonel. Electra Theodorides-Bustle is the executive director of DHSMV. The DHSMV is headquartered at the Neil Kirkman Building in Tallahassee, the state capital.
The Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles is a state government agency which reports to the governor of Florida and the Florida Cabinet. The Department of Public Safety, created in 1939, was reorganized in 1970 and renamed the Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles. The Division of the Florida Highway Patrol ( FHP) is a division of the Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles and the law enforcement agency charged with ensuring the safety of the highways and roads of the state.
