Government efficiency: DOL’s License Express

DOLLicExIt wasn’t long ago when long lines at the Department of Licensing were common. During busy times, DOL customers might wait several hours for something as routine as renewing a driver’s license.

Those days are over thanks to License Express.

Over 200,000 customers have signed up for a License Express account since the website went live just over a year ago.

If you haven’t signed up already, head over to DOL’s website and take a look.

Among the many options customers have with License Express:

  • Renew your license
  • Replace a lost license
  • Change your address
  • Add and remove vehicles and boats
  • Receive email reminders when your tabs are due
  • File a report of sale

Teens can pre-apply for their first driver’s license, saving them time when they finish the process in-person.

Here’s a quick two-minute video overview of the new DOL service.
