NATURE OF WORK

While the basic duties of a Trooper include investigating traffic accidents, issuing citations, writing reports and enforcing the laws of Maryland (see "Basic Duties", below); our Troopers do so much more.

In fact, the Maryland State Police is the primary law enforcement agency in many counties across the state. The Aviation Command is the only flight program in Maryland that performs medevac, aerial law enforcement, search and rescue, homeland security, and disaster assessment.
