Texas Department of Public Safety

Texas Department of Public Safety is a government agency with a rich history dating back to 1935. It was established with a mission to enforce the law and ensure public safety in Texas.

It originally consisted of six departments, including the famous Texas Rangers, whose history dates back to the 1820s.

Today, DPS offers a wide range of services, from issuing driver's licenses to registering vehicles to managing emergencies during natural disasters.

Modern technologies, such as an automated fingerprint identification system, make it a key institution in the governance structure of the state of Texas.
