NJMVC Rocks
It used to be called NJDMV. In the old days, the lines and paperwork were absurd, and the employees surly. The last time I had to visit in person was 15 years ago. It took nearly four hours--for a title transfer. Today was for a driver's license renewal, after the state law changed to require digital photo licenses. My previous four-year analog non-photo license renewal was grandfathered because I renewed mere months before the state law was changed.
I was in and out of the joint two towns and two counties away within half an hour. Round-trip, it took about an hour, but that includes the 15 minute drive each way. You could knock me over with a (choose your colorful phrase).
How many times have you ever said "Wow, you're efficient! Thank you so much. Have a nice afternoon." to a DMV employee? In NJ, it never used to happen. "The times, they are a changin'," to quote Bob Dylan.
I'm very impressed.

That is impressive. I got my first drivers license in NJ. My, things have changed! Down here, in the land of less government it's not, well, quite the same. But they speed things up by giving ten year renewable licenses to people who can barely walk or see. Also, we have no vehicle inspections here.
Sad that we feel the need to comment on competent service from state employees since it seems to be in such short supply these days!
