DMV offices prepare for new license procedure
RALEIGH (AP) - Drivers' license offices in eastern North Carolina will close for part of a day so they can prepare for a new process where applicants receive a temporary driving permit before their license.
WRAL-TV reported that 16 offices will close for half a day this week, then reopen the following day to prepare for central issuance.
Under that process, people renewing their licenses receive a temporary driving permit that's valid for 20 days while their personal information is verified. Their license or identification card is then mailed to them.
The state Division of Motor Vehicles began phasing in the program statewide earlier this month in Wake County, followed by 15 counties in western North Carolina. All 114 DMV offices are expected to have the program by the fall.
