The most efficient and effective DMV I've ever visited in my life. There is no wait if you make an appointment. This was not usually the case at DMA in another state - waiting for 2 hours then more wait was a norm even after making an appointment. The staff at the counter checks your documents so you have everything you need before seeing another staff at the main desk. The staffs at the main desk were also very efficient. I was able to get my VA license in 20 minutes! Yay!

Patricia Kelly | Sep 27, 2021

I don't think so. You are old enough to get your license but they have changed some things. You should be able to go to dmv.now and sign in or sign up. They have alot of info on there.

I don't know her, but leave the poor lady alone. I don't see how she could be driving any worse than many of the people I see out here flying down the highway.

Is there a place to park (lock) bicycles around the this DMV?

Melissa Walker | Sep 27, 2021

I'm pretty sure they don't but maybe they are around the back or side where I didn't see but from what I saw there was no bike rack. I rode my moped but just parked in a space, much more difficult with a bicycle. They should install more racks more places honestly...

Aurora Greene | Sep 28, 2017
D C (Beastmaster) | Sep 28, 2018

16 years old, you must hold a learners for 6 months and then you get a license. At 18 you're required to show proof of a approved DMV schooling education course or pass the tests before 3 fails. You must hold you license at or after 18 for 60 days and you're eligible for the road skills test. You MUST provide your own car.
