I spoke with my COE buddy today . He said that the federal gov. had deeded all land which loop 375 uses to the State of Texas. He said an MP has no jurisdiction as the land as it is not Federal property. Additionally, he drives this section of 375 at least four times a day and has never seen an MP patrolling the highway. I traveled the highway twice a day about a year ago for a six month project and I have never seen an MP patrolling . My friends first reaction was that this is a fake story. However, if an MP did issue a citation, they need to be reported. Lastly, as this is not Federal land you may have a pistol in the car.

I have a friend who works for the COE and is working on Bliss now. I'll ask him tommorow .
