    KVE has been become a division of the KY State Police, and those boys did not like to be called DOT, and in MN the officers prefer CMVE officers, no matter what they call them selves the report has to be returned to the cor. offices.

    DOT-KVE-CMVE-lalalalalala. They all come after the cmv driver with the intention of collecting revenue for WHOMEVER, Standing under a big sign that says SAFTY. I will do my best to obey the laws that govern me as a cmv driver, but I have no respect for any of the egoes out there enforcing them. And thats my two cents. Peace.

    I'm going to ask this. When a mexican driver gets stop by DOT and let us say the driver does speak english . The company he drives for is mexican based/ owned. How will the DOT inspection have an effect on the company? How does the DOT officer run an MVR check on the driver?

    All Mexican and Canadian carriers operating in the U.S. must have FMCSA Motor Carrier Authority . Their information is recorded in the SAFER system .

    Now that's a bad attitude:biggrin_2552:
    So you don't have any respect for me? Now I think you are nicer than that to say something as such:yes2557:
    Most of them are out there doing their job just as you are!
    They are trying to assure you are following the regulations just as I try to make sure you are running legal etc.
    Many will teach you what you are doing wrong (from what I hear) and some yes have a bad attitude and of course fine you for any thing he/she wants to, however you should report them to the state they work for. It's just like going anywhere someone is only doing it for the money not because their heart is in it. Im sorry your used to my heart being into it and no one else can be as nice. l.o.l. Im being overly conceded but definately I am not like that for real
