* Enforcing traffic laws: The MVA works with law enforcement agencies to enforce traffic laws and regulations, including speed limits, seatbelt laws, and DUI laws.
* Conducting driving tests: The MVA conducts driving tests to ensure drivers have the knowledge and skills to operate a motor vehicle safely.
