So Around my town we have regular cops, and we have sheriff officers, both drive around in marked vehicles. What are some things a sheriff can't do that a regular officer is allowed to?
Are they allowed to make vehicle stops?
Are they allowed to respond to crimes in progess?
Are they just allowed to do warrants etc?
Id imagine they're allowed to do all of this if they drive around in marked vehicles with lights and sirens, if not whats the purpose. Only reason I ask is because I've seen 3 of them in row driving past my house.
Overall I just want to know what they do aside from regular cops, aside from warrants etc.
