If the dmv system is so broke that scalpers can sell free appointments, the actual solution is to fix the system.

It’s so broke here in Maryland that it once took five trips and nine hours to register a car. A simple task that is their main job.

My most complicated was getting a replacement title for my dad’s truck which was too old to be in the electronic title system. The clerk took my power of attorney, truck registration as proof of ownership quickly created a new title and ten minutes later I was ready to sell it. If the title had been in the computer it would probably have been under five minutes. I may complain about the Ohio government, but the BMV and title offices are on the ball.

In many states, it is not their main job. Their main job is to turn you away.
