ATLANTA — Starting July 1, the Georgia Department of Public Safety’s Motor Carrier Compliance Division (MCCD) will officially operate under a new name: Commercial Vehicle Enforcement (CVE).
The change, prompted by the passage of House Bill 116 during the 2025 legislative session, is meant to better reflect the division’s core mission — enforcing safety regulations for commercial motor vehicles across Georgia.
The new name will appear on all official materials, including uniforms, vehicle markings, patches, and other insignia, the Georgia Department of Public Safety said in a news release.
Despite the name change, CVE’s duties remain the same. Officers will continue to conduct inspections of commercial vehicles, drivers, and cargo to promote highway safety. These inspections take place on the roadside, at inspection stations, and at motor carrier terminals.
On July 11, the division will welcome the 13th Commercial Vehicle Officer School at the Georgia Public Safety Training Center in Forsyth, marking its first new officer class under the CVE name.
