I like to know what are the duties performed by a trooper ? I live in florida. I would like to work for the FHP. I'm sure troopers don't simply patrol highways and state roads. Beside that what else they do on a weekly/monthly basis ? And when they make an arrest: do they take the individual to the county jail(where the arrest is made) or they take him/her to the a state correction facility ? ANd also I'm going to a meeting regarding joining their auxiliary program. Would someone elaborate for me on their duties, training (+areas and period of training) Will the auxiliary benefit me in an application for any other local/county agency

Additional Details

I taught motor carrier safety, weigth stations and safety inspections of commercial motor vehicles were duties of the state's dept of transportation- law enforcement inspector/officer

Answer 1

Troopers perform all the duties of a regular police officer, in areas not routinely patrolled by local LE.  Yes, they have all the specialized units, SWAT, narcotics, K-9, you just don't see them in the highly populated cities that much.  In highly populated cities they handle the highways.  I know many Troopers in several states and have found them to be some the best LE out there.

Good luck and stay safe.

Answer 2

.  The auxiliary won't help you as much as working as a deputy at the county prison.  Then switch to police duty. You know the duties: protect the public safety. For more: watch COPS on tv.
