CVE's primary purpose is the enforcement of all state laws/regulations on commercial and non commercial vehicles traveling throughout the Commonwealth of Kentucky. CVE's secondary purpose is to conduct drug interdiction operations on the Commonwealth's state and county highways, working jointly with the KSP's Special Operations Division D.E.S.I. (Drug Enforcement and Special Investigations) unit. The CVE Division operates and monitors the Commonwealth's system of commercial vehicle weigh stations throughout Kentucky.
