I would love to give a shoutout to the awesome lady who helped me, unfortunately I don't remember her name. But on the receipt her employee ID is CKHOLBO. Thank you for being so sweet, so friendly, for the compliments, & the quick service. It's so nice to work with someone who smiles & treats you like a human & not just another body in line.

Today I took my dad to the Driver License Office (this location) to renew his driver's license, and…read morethe whole thing took less than 15 minutes. We were so lucky to be helped by Shelby, who provided exceptional customer service. Shelby was incredibly kind, patient, and professional throughout the process. My dad is over 86 years old and had difficulty completing his fingerprints, but Shelby never rushed him. Instead, she patiently guided him and made sure he felt comfortable and respected. What touched me most was how she took the time to compliment and encourage my dad, which really made his day. Her kindness and positive attitude turned what could have been a stressful experience into a pleasant one. In today's busy world, it is refreshing to meet someone who treats others with such kindness and respect. Shelby is a true asset to the Driver License Office. Thank you, Shelby, for treating my dad with such dignity, patience, and compassion. Outstanding employees like you make a real difference in people's lives.

It took 1.10 hr (one hour 10 minutes) at the counter to renew my daughter's learner driver license despite having appointment on April 29th at 345pm. They don't care about your valuable time. We spent over two hours in total and they wanted us to spend the whole day. Shared our experience with Trenise, the Lead on duty but to no avail. Very much disappointed and perturbed on this. Avoid this location! They are still in 18th century!

There is simply no reason to have changed this policy 4) if you are going to arbitrarily eliminate walk-ins for some reason, perhaps do something (literally anything) to inform folks, so they do not waste 2 hrs of their day arriving there early to stand in line. How about a notation on your website? How about a message on your awful phone message system? How about a simple, easy note on your front door (for the 10 folks who got there at 7am and waited an hour for some lady to come out and unapologetically tell everyone to take a hike) If this was a business, it would go under in a week

All I had to do was head to the forms on the wall and select the one that applied to me (there were three to choose from and the options were very clear). Clipboards for filling out the forms were plenty at the reception desk. Additionally, the form was very straightforward. There are plenty of seats in the waiting area and clear signs tracking customer numbers for service. The DPS counters for customer service are hidden from the waiting area with temporary walls, providing customer privacy. That said, there are clear signs posted indicating the number of each employee's counter to help customers go to the right person. Customer numbers are clearly announced when it is their turn. The employee who assisted me was amiable and efficient. He appreciated that I was prepared with appropriate documentation and a completely filled out form. Taking my new driver license photo was easy; however, there was only once chance for it, so I had to accept the one that came thru. But it's not meant to be a glamour shot, so no reason to complain! Paying happens with the employee, and that was super easy. Overall, this is a great location to renew driver licenses!

I definitely wish it was zero stars…read more I am a deaf trainee for a school bus and my trainer was with me when we checked in. I was prepared for the road test for CDL class b. My number was called and as my trainer and I sat down at a desk, we experienced a rude attitude from an employee named James, even he is the examiner for the road test, he claimed that we were late and we were supposed to be on time. But my trainer defended that we already checked in and filled out the forms. Minutes later, he learned that I am deaf, he obviously determined that I should have an interpreter and he can't proceed. We watched him walking away from the desk and spoke with his super. It seemed like the super told him firmly that he should proceed regardless. After he/the other employee proceeded the forms in the computer, as I was walking out of the building with James to proceed the road test, the trainer overheard him mumbling to himself, "I don't know if he will pass the test without an interpreter." I am capable to take the test without requiring an interpreter because I had studied the handbook for many weeks and I was prepared to explain everything on the whiteboard. Certain employees definitely need to be re-trained to interact with deaf applicants and keep an open mind while doing their job!
