why do I have a feeling that B wrote this...???
anonymous_user The DMV in it's entirety is a complete waste of time, money, and all the rest. Registering a car should be able to be done online, and plates shipped out within 2 biz days. Dropping a reg would be as simple as filling out a form and mailing in the plates. Inspections are useless. We have inspection now, and i STILL see un roadworthy vehicles, SUV's with far under-inflated tires, and other safety issues that would never pass inspection. But, they are still on the road anyway, so why bother trying to enforce it? Emissions-- another complete joke. Waste of time and $20. IMO, if your car is 1992 (obd1) or newer, you shouldn't need to go to emissions more than once-- at time of registration. License/pics can be taken at kiosks as suggested, or even in the post office. Hell, submit a passport photo to the DMV website, and get your new license in the mail a few days later.
