Whens the last time you've been to the DMV?

The second MD started doing appointments it was 100x better. Even before appointments for simple things like returning plates there were people with ipads you could just checkout with.

Last year, I moved to Texas. Texas has a DMV, but most of its functions are semi-privatized so you can get your license plates from a private agency, which is super convenient. In contrast, I had to get my drivers license at the DPS, which was booked months out.
Same in MN. Typically I'm in and out in less than 10 minutes. Just don't go at the end of the month!
The last time I was at the DMV, I waited 4 hours for a 10 minute appointment.
DMV experiences vary wildly from state to state.
