Similar..we moved back to VA a month before my son left for school OOS

He has not had an ID with a current address on it for over a year. Finally got an updated license last week.

In some ways the DMV appointment thing is great, don't have to spend a bunch of time waiting for your turn. But, the absurdity of the number of people they are serving for the size of the facility is beyond stupid. If 6 feet is the rule, they could at least double and in many cases triple the number of people they serve. Given that only a 1/3 of the staff is working, I'd like to know how many paychecks were missed by those that aren't working...I'd suspect not many, which means the timeline for getting back to normal will be well beyond what it should be.

I hate, hate, hate, hate, hate the DMV in Virginia ... -- vt90 06/28/2021 08:51AM

Some good news is that Virginia has extended expiration dates by... -- Spud 06/28/2021 10:53AM

Hopefully they aren't still towing vehicles with expired registrations ... -- vt90 06/28/2021 10:56AM

They must have changed the rules - I switched my car from Alexandria to VB -- 3011Cochrane 06/28/2021 09:17AM

Same here, switched both vehicles a couple years ago - all done online ** -- Hokerer 06/28/2021 11:07AM

I would recommend she do the same. Change the address the car is located -- EDGEMAN 06/28/2021 09:25AM

I actually have a somewhat positive DMV tale -- Happy Dog 06/28/2021 09:15AM

When they are at full capacity, they can actually get back their previous -- Happy Dog 06/28/2021 09:51AM

And the DMV's are still working on appointments only -- Vienna_Hokie 06/28/2021 09:11AM

Yep - that was my thought as well ... -- vt90 06/28/2021 09:17AM

NOVA used to have significant air quality issues due to vehicle emissions -- Hungry Joe 06/28/2021 12:21PM

In Culpeper I didn’t have cats on my truck ** -- 83Hokie 06/28/2021 3:53PM

In the rest of the state, they check to see there are no emissions related -- EDGEMAN 06/28/2021 09:29AM

I'm not even sure that's really enforced. -- MP4VT2004 06/28/2021 12:43PM

That goes back to whoever was doing the inspection -- EDGEMAN 06/28/2021 6:06PM

Because most of us don't live in a place where emissions are an issue -- Vienna_Hokie 06/28/2021 09:26AM

Pollution rates. NOVA air must be more polluted. Now I am seeing -- Stork 06/28/2021 09:25AM

Tell her to head to Onancock DMV on Eastern Shore. It's where VB folks -- Stork 06/28/2021 09:06AM

I am not sure he should tell his daughter to head to Onancock -- turkeywinghokie 06/28/2021 11:58AM

Since it is registered in my name I don't think she can do anything. ** -- vt90 06/28/2021 09:16AM

That won't help him, unless there's emission testing there ** -- Brown Water 06/28/2021 09:10AM

Rather that get the NOVA emissions test, can't he just register it in VB? -- Stork 06/28/2021 09:14AM

Just glad we don't have that crap down here! -- EDGEMAN 06/28/2021 09:26AM

They have emissions testers on some of the exits -- Happy Dog 06/28/2021 10:35AM

Ummm, just get the emissions done in NOVASux.. I am sure some are open late -- turkeywinghokie 06/28/2021 09:02AM

Cutting Corners will come back to get ya ** -- darnellm 06/28/2021 09:00AM

Likely had to due to budget cuts -- statmanfromHCyrs 06/28/2021 09:24AM

Shun ** -- OXVT 06/28/2021 08:55AM
