MOST EFFICIENT GOVERNMENT-RUN ESTABLISHMENT EVER.
Seriously. Why can't the California DMVs be like this? This is definitely something Nevada has on Cali. And a full snack bar selling even healthy snacks like fruit salads? Am I still at the DMV?!
Every single person I've met here is super nice and accommodating. I've had to borrow a screwdriver from the people at the vehicle inspection to take my license plate off, then borrow it again to put it back on. I've had to wait for the California DMV to get back to me because I lost my registration and the woman helping me (her name is Marilyn and she is awesome) went above and beyond to make the process as smooth as possible. Even the TVs have entertaining content on them, such as trivia about celebrities (go figure).
A word of advice: you can get your number, then leave to get a smog check across the street and come back in time to get served. I recommend Auto Tech on Durango five minutes away. They have a yelp deal where you get $10 for $25, which is how much a smog check costs. Coincidence? That price is unheard of in California.
Anyway, I am impressed. Never did I think I would walk out of the DMV not wanting to shoot it up. Joking... shout out to Marilyn :)
