Today marks the 100th Anniversary of Indiana's Motor Vehicle Police. This agency enforced the certificate of title act, which required car owners to register their vehicles. In the 1920s and early 1930s, car theft was a major problem - the Motor Vehicle Police were created to help alleviate this issue. In 1933, the Motor Vehicle Police became the Indiana State Police and were granted full policing authority. Take a look at some of our early photos of Motor Vehicle Police officers and note the differences in uniforms.

Today was Rookie Car Issue! We’re so incredibly proud of our new troopers as they start their solo patrol. And a shoutout to the garage crew for getting all of the commissions ready for action!
In 1998, Superintendent Carraway reintroduced black commissions to the Indiana State Police Fleet. These Ford Crown Victorias had a gold stripe down the side and were used until the mid-2000s. Take a look at our Youtube video of the issuing of the first set of these new police commissions.

The beginning of April means one thing for troopers - Summer uniforms! In the mid-1950s, troopers were given the option to wear a short sleeved uniform shirt. These early summer uniform shirts were French blue (same color as the pants) with navy pocket flaps and epaulettes. Although troopers still have a Summer uniform, they department transitioned to full navy colored short-sleeved shirts not too long after introducing the summer option.
The ISP Museum will be closed tomorrow, 4/1 and Friday, 4/2. We will reopen for our regular hours on Tuesday, 4/6.
