I just used this to time my arrival at the West Ashley DMV to renew my license…it’s been 10 years since I have been to the DMV and I will say they’ve come a long way baby… http://www.scdmvonline.com/dmvnew/offloclist.aspx
I will say do not get there right when they open if you can help it…
Usually about 1030 is an excellent time to get in there if you need to. They have come a very long way over the years…personalities haven’t improved that much though.
Nikki hired COL (retired) Kevin Shwedo to run the DMV, he was the former Deputy Commanding General at Fort Jackson and is a personal friend
it didn’t take him too long to fix it, how did he do it?, he visited every DMV, no one knew who he was, he would walk in and observe for awhile then act like a customer and see what happened,
he asked the worker bees (not management) what their problems were and asked them what they thought needed to change, then he met with management and made changes
they now work flex/various hours to help with their personal schedules, most of them are mothers with kids, they staff up during the busiest times and reduce staff during the slow times, they have a front desk to make sure everyone has the correct paperwork and gets the proper attention
just shows you what can happen when you put folks in charge that actually have experience in accomplishing things
That is exactly what conservatives do, get the right person for the job. Many of the changes at the DMV were started with Sanford. He made a good first stab to kill the beast of an operation.
