Not Ranked
I tried the Belleview inspection station a couple of weeks ago. The basic deal seems to be and has always been State Police don't work for DOL and don't intend to. DOL comes up with their policies and interpretations on the fly (i.e. inspections are required for retitle, which by the way is not anywhere in the law) and DOL decides that the State Police should do an inspection, but nobody knows what kind and State Police rightfully say that no inspection is either required by law or necessary and they don't intend to do **** that someone at DOL decides to make up just to let DOL off the hook. I don't see an end to this for a long time, if ever. I don't know of anyone who would be in a position to straighten out DOL and make the State Police play along. I would like to be wrong but I worked for the government for 35 years and this is a perfect example of our operating motto, "Which way today?"
