unprofessional, a waste of time. these people are suppose to be apart of the states institution to help its constituents, but they rather sit back and let the citizen do all the work. i just need to get my registration, yet they have relentlessly proved to me they are incapable, or not within any capacity to hold the role of any local government position to help its citizen!! i've had to do every step myself, even after proving my credentials on online platforms; submitting proof, then calling companies to confirm my proof FOR THEM! I'm a full-time student and server, so this is really not acceptable. the only thing they do is click buttons (seems like it). utterly disappointed. ***they've pretended to 'lose' signal on my calls, and waited in silence until they or myself hang up because they refuse to do any work.

Are there accommodations similar to the IEP in school (extended time, reading support, etc.) for individuals taking their learners permit?

Jen Casper | Oct 6, 2020
Leah Watts | Oct 6, 2020

I believe that when you make an appointment, that if you need special accommodations, that you mention it then and before you walk into the MVA there are people who take your temperature and ask you if you have an appointment and I believe you can also mention it then.

Take your current title and registration and ask for a new one. I would recommend Dave's Tag & Title instead. No appointment needed, he's quick and you can call him for any questions and he'll answer the phone.

Don't take long

How much does it cost to take the driving test if you are over 21 ?

Susan Hatfield | May 9, 2022
Lisa Clark | May 9, 2022

My mom just had to take both the written and driving tests, since her license expired during COVID and everything was shut down. She is in her 70's. I think it's unfair that anyone would have to retake the entire driving exam and actual driving course because they shut down everything AND told us our licenses and tag's were still usable and good. It doesn't cost anything more if you have to redo the exam and course. All you pay for when you pass it all, and it's a little over $80; but that's good for several years.

my tags expire today and my stickers havnt arrived yet.can i drive the car until they arrive will i get a ticket ?

Kathy Brandow | Mar 10, 2022
Vida D. Kwateng-Pugh | Mar 10, 2022

You should keep the receipt of your purchase. And you should have a grace period as well because you have ur receipt.

jill danza | Jan 9, 2022

Jay shah is correct. You have to go online or the MVA website to make any appointment for any type of situation. You can also go to a closet branch and they can help you but will ask you if you have made one or need to make one as well. Hope this helps!

Do I need to make an app jus to come get the drivers ed book

MrFunny Bones | Oct 6, 2021
Jerry Collier | Oct 6, 2021

the MVA does a fantastic job when you figure how many people they serve it seemed there were a lot of empty service desks it seems they are short of people if you make an appointment you should be there on time but don't come early you just waste your time! And they will tell you come as close to your appointment time as you can. Chances are if you have an appointment say for example at 11 the chances are you will finally see your MVA representative at about 12 but they are very very considerate and courteous and they're doing the best they can God bless them all
