The supervisor and all such driver's license examiners shall be within the classified service under the Kansas civil service act, except as otherwise provided by the provisions of K.S.A. 75-2935(1)(x) or (1)(cc), and amendments thereto. Any person employed by a third party who has entered into a contract with the department of revenue pursuant to K.S.A. 8-129, and amendments thereto, to provide services of a driver's license examiner shall not be required to be within the classified service under the Kansas civil service act. Such driver's license examiners shall make and conduct all examinations of applicants for operator's and chauffeur's licenses required by law, and shall exercise and enforce the licensing provisions of the operator's and chauffeur's licensing act, and shall perform such other duties as may be prescribed by law or by the director of vehicles. All such driver's license examiners are hereby vested with the power and authority of peace and police officers in the execution of the duties imposed upon them by this act and by the director of vehicles. The director of vehicles shall determine what, if any, vehicles, equipment and supplies, and insignia of office are needed by driver's license examiners. The property so determined to be needed shall be furnished without expense to such examiners. All property so furnished shall remain the property of the state and be strictly accounted for by each driver's license examiner.
