Starting Tuesday, getting tested for HIV in the District will be as easy as renewing a driver's license.

[RummyChick]

And you thought the lines were already bad.....wait until this starts up. Counseling at the DMV??

"Starting Tuesday, getting tested for HIV in the District will be as easy as renewing a driver's license."

all while registering to vote!

[fatnotlazy]

And who is going to pay for this? As if I don’t know.

[SnakeDoctor]

Not a bad idea. Ever been to the DMV? Its like a leper colony down there.

Why dont they just get it over with and put rainbow colors on the DMV signs?

[ComputerGuy]

Which state will be the first to issue rainbow license tags, I wonder.

1. Can you safely make a right turn at a red light after coming to a complete stop?

2. The safe distance for following cars is 1 car length per 10 mph.

3. Have you ever been to the county of Haiti or has sex with a member of the same sex?

I hope pap smears and colonoscopies will be available, as well.
I can’t afford a $1,000. visit to the ER, or the wait after all the illegals have been seen. Besides, the Doc is leaving and taking his practise to Belize.

“And who is going to pay for this?”

Well, if you’ve got enough money to get a license, and a car to drive, you ought to be able to fork over a few bucks for an HIV test. Uh, right?;)

[RichInOC]

All current sodomy charges in the District will now be downgraded to the lesser included offense of following too closely.

[WestwardHo]

I wonder if they’ll take your picture with the little oral testing thingy hanging out of your mouth...verification, you know.

Calcutta on the Potomac rolls along, for Pete’s Sake, DC is totally run by the federal govt, and look at the state of things.

[socal_parrot]

I guess “Have you ever been rear ended” should be added to the DL test too.

[RummyChick]

Health Department providing the kits
DMV providing office space
250,000 funding came from Gilead Sciences for staff costs and the $15.00 that was suppose to go to the DMV>

[a fool in paradise]

And you can get a colonoscopy at the IRS too!

[a fool in paradise]

DMV is registering sex offenders now?

[Secret Agent Man]

4. Have you ever been rear-ended (automobile)?

5. Have you ever been rear-ended (by another guy’s penis)?

[mlizzy]

Isn’t a trip to the DMV depressing enough? What’s next? Teaming up with Planned Parenthood?

[Wuli]

And are the D.C. drivers’ license and registration fees assigned to pay for this new service, or will the budget for the DMV be augmented by general revenues; and how long before it is conscripted for other social programs?

Get a friend in nearby Virginia or Maryland to let you use their address as your residence and take your DMV business out of D.C.
