As little as three years ago, an NJ.com story declared the “bad old days of the DMV” — long lines, rude employees and a bureaucracy from hell, were a thing of the past.
In 2002, then Gov. James E. McGreevey convened the “Fix DMV” commission, which delivered a report about how to deal with the Division of Motor Vehicles chronic problems of lines, long waits and inefficiencies. The Nov. 2002 report led to the creation of the current Motor Vehicle Commission.
Under the MVC, wait times and lines had gotten shorter. Even beleaguered Jersey drivers stuck up for the agency, saying that it was better than it used to be.
Why is it other states do not seem to have this problem, is it just stupidity in NJ?
Half the employees in Oakland office are worth shit. Full 180
I’m going to take a wild guess here, but do you think the crappy service has anything to do with it being a government-run service?
most densly populated state in the nation = most cars/drivers per square mile = most stressed MV agency.
My husband had to go to Oakland a few months ago and he was back in an hour. We have always received gracious service from the MVA employees. And this includes the years before we became Senior Citizens. Our grandson, however, always has a miserable time. I guess there is no real way to figure it out!
