    Give and renew state drivers license and identification cards. Also renew CDL license. Even though there are long lines they work hard and get you out quickly. Friendly and helpful staff and very knowledgeable. I believe you can also renew your license online but you need two proof of residency.

I believe upon and entering tickets we're given out prior to the line up so basically I guess that means that my ticket number represents the place in as it is understood to be. I heard a customer yell out about his disliking for the wait. Others nodding their heads in agreement 2 visit 11-3-2022 Ticket 88 I arrived at opening the call number that heard after receiving the ticket was number 66 so again hopefully this paints a picture of the wait time frame. All I can say is as for waiting this not conducive if you have littles to wait especially if it goes on after the first to the second hour. I can say that the staff behind the glass did say good morning when I got my ticket-- oh by the way seating is very limited especially if there's already a line formed so keep that in mind. You may not be seated until a seat becomes available so be prepared to stand Incase one wanted to know what number is in service/being called there's a brown box with the number light up in red above the service door

The lady that was greeting everybody at the door and finding out what they needed was the most pleasant and I thought, wow this is a surprise! But then we waited 30 minutes after our appointment time and my son was supposed to test to get his learners permit. The lady we went to was pretty rude. I'm assuming he failed the eye test, but we were never actually told that. When I said something about the test, she's snarled, "He's not taking the test." And I mean that she literally snarled at me. She threw a form at me, charged me two dollars, and said come back tomorrow with his glasses. Now that's on him that he didn't have his glasses for his eye test, but turns out that the form she threw at me has to be filled out by his ophthalmologist. She could have told us that. She could have told us he failed the eye exam instead of us just guessing. And I'm not even gonna talk about the other female employee that screamed at everybody to be quiet or she'd escort them out of the building when applause broke out after a number was called. If you have 50-60 people waiting with one guy saying he'd been there since 8:15 am and it was now 3 pm, they're gonna break out in applause when a number is called after 30 minutes of no number being called. If you don't have the patience for that and scream at already frustrated customers, maybe the DMV isn't the job for you!

She had a smile on her face at all times and encouraged the young people taking their permit tests and was very patient with them and everyone else. The employee who took my picture and my paperwork was also extremely pleasant. Please review what paperwork you will need as far as proof of residency, etc before going and this will save you from having to return home and get things. Otherwise, I went about 10:30 and there were 8 people in line ahead of me (not counting people already sitting and waiting) and I got out in about 45 minutes. I have had rude staff in the past there but hopefully this means they have hired new staff as everyone seemed to be very friendly and professional when I went today.

Thank you Nekkie for smiling and helping out and Margie for also being nice to us. I could tell that Margie might have been a little tired, but she was still nice to us. For a Monday their spirits were up! Best of luck with the rest of the week and impatient people. Yes, there is a long wait. But that's normal it's a DMV. There are lots of things they have to check, scan and double check. Oh, and yes the system goes down at times. But that's not their fault. So be patient with them. Just because you don't get your way does not mean you should act like a toddler throwing a tantrum. You know who you are sir!
