    In many cases you can renew an ID online or by mail; if you can’t, there’s always the option to just show up at the DMV, you don’t have to have an appointment.

      And if you don’t have a home address then you don’t deserve to vote?

      Remember when we decided to not let just land owners vote?

      Your solution is to just spend an entire day at the DMV and hope you get seen so you don’t have to do it again the next day? In what world does that sound reasonable?

          Well I don’t have time in my life to spend an entire day at the DMV. And I don’t find that to be a reasonable expectation. So, not here.

          I’ve had to pay late registration penalties due my vehicles before under the same circumstances. Walk in, 150 people in line, walk out.

              Why do you care? The story is about how difficult it is to just drop into the DMV on a whim.

                As someone who lived in countries where it’s actually difficult to get administrative tasks done, dropping into the DMV on a whim is not difficult by any measure.

                I do care because it seems you choose to do tasks the hard way when there are actually easier routes to accomplish the same thing?

                  Again this isn’t about me or the car registration process, it’s about the difficulty of simply walking into the DMV when an appointment is unreasonably far away. What I might’ve done differently in my circumstance has no bearing.
