Vimes is far too human to be comparable to Javert. He would look at him as a weirdo, I think

Vimes would consider Javert ... worrying, I think. A good man in a fight, a good man to have at your back when your back's against the wall (see the Gorbeau Tenement, also to a degree the barricade), but also a timewaster, bringing people in for petty things that honestly the Watch hasn't got time for and expecting them to be punished. Javert doesn't have the streak of cruelty to make Vimes think of Swing, but he has enough of a similar mentality to be worrying on that level, too. Enough of a strength of conviction to be comparable to Carrot, but without Carrot's levening sense of compassion. All in all, just a very worrying man.

Though, really, Javert would be driven mad by Ankh Morpork. This is a city where criminals are not only explicitly and publicly in a position of power, but also explicitly and publicly acknowledged to be a significant component of law enforcement (Thieves Guild). Carrot took that in stride, because Carrot is made of much sterner and more flexible stuff. Javert ... not so much.

Yeah, I was thinking that. Although less "driven mad" and more "eaten alive". I don't know if he'd last a week.

... I think it would depend on whether the law of narrative causality comes down on his side or not. While Javert held to his convictions, even the nominally real world of Les Mis had a tendency to go his way ("Shoot, if you like. The gun will misfire." Thenadier shoots, the gun misfires). Javert has a similar force of personality to Carrot, and a similar level of physical badassery (again, Gorbeau tenement).

However, it only lasts so long as his conviction does. And in Ankh Morpork ... well, either he'd become driven to overthrow the status quo, in which case he's running headlong into Vetinari, or he'll crumble and lose conviction. Neither of which end well for him, but the former might let him last a little longer.
