Good points Y2bad4u - I thought they made more than that. From what you said it seems it would be kinda hard to recruit out of state. That too bad for our troopers but I guess they know going in what the salaries are.

To me the DPS is the premier law enforcement agency in the state. It just don't seem right to be stopped and ticketed by a trooper who just moved from Michigan or some other state. Seems to me there would be enough prospective individuals who already live in the state to fill 300 positions. I know local agencies recruit out of state but come on, this is the Texas DPS we are talking about. Wish I was younger.
