Call center agents are available to help customers with driver’s license reinstatement issues during operation hours. The past few days have witnessed a huge number of people seeking driver-license-related services. The Department of Motor Vehicle has assured residents that all their issues will be resolved on time.
“We have seen a huge increase in the demand for our services in the past few weeks and we have no option but to do everything possible to meet the needs of our customers”, said Karen St. Germaine – OMV Commissioner. “Our staff continues to handle new challenges that were brought by the COBVID-19 pandemic. That’s why the department has been forced to increase its operating hours to ensure that no customer is turned away”.
