Georgetown DMV Closing

From DDOT:

Due to construction at the Georgetown Park Mall, the District of Columbia Department of Motor Vehicle (DC DMV) Service Center located at 3222 M Street, NW, will close on Saturday, May 19, 2012 at 4:00pm. Although DC DMV will open a temporary service center location, it will not be operational until two weeks later. Therefore, customers are encouraged to “skip the in-person” trip and conduct their transactions online at dmv.dc.gov. This recommendation will prevent extremely long lines at the other two service center locations.

On Monday, June 4, 2012, DC DMV will open a temporary service center at 301 C Street, NW. This temporary service center will operate the same hours as Adjudication Services which will be co-located with the temporary service center. Therefore, the hours of operation for the temporary location will be Monday-Friday, 8:15-4:00pm. Please keep in mind the hours of operation for the other two DC DMV service centers will remain unchanged with Tuesday – Saturday operations.

Below is a list of DC DMV impacted locations and hours of operation:

We apologize for the customer inconvenience of these operational changes.

Are the quotes around “skip the in-person” trip to acknowledge that you are going to have to actually go in person anyway because the DMV website is so crappy?

“Therefore, customers are encouraged to “skip the in-person” trip and conduct their transactions online at dmv.dc.gov.”

The Georgetown location isn’t closing for two weeks, it’s closing indefinitely. However, the temporary location won’t be up and running for two weeks.

The title is a little misleading.

With the location closing, I expect customer service at the Georgetown branch to increase significantly. (zing!)

I am glad I renewed my D.C. Drivers License at the Georgetown DMV location 2 weeks ago on May 5th. DMV want everyone to renew everything online. However, most people don’t have computers and D.C. Government website doesn’t work well. I prefer to renew my Drivers License in person because I don’t want to have the same photo from 5 years ago. Now, the new D.C. License last for 8 years.

From what I could tell, the Georgetown branch was the only place where non-citizen residents can do any work on their ID. This is going to create mass confusion.
