The California Department of Motor Vehicles announced Thursday that all its offices will be closed for three Fridays in July as part of furlough order.
Schwarzenegger declared a fiscal state of emergency ordered a third furlough day for more than 200,000 state employees. The move will bring their total pay cut to about 14 percent.

How is this possible?...Please raise my taxes so the DMV will stay open...
lol
200,000 state government employees? Good grief!
Fire 150,000 of these parasites.
Basically all State offices will be closed the first three Fridays of each month, not just DMV.
How will we ever survive?
The DMV leeches in America should be shut down for the good of the public.Nothing but government parasites.
I don’t know. I will burn incense and meditate. Maybe a shot of Jack Daniels a time or two.
Wait until they do it to your health care.
How can you tell if a DMV is open or closed? They process the same number of customers in either case.
If they only required vehicle registration every FIVE years, they’d only have to be open ONE day a week to process the same number of registrations. Or they could close down 75% of the DMV offices and still be ahead!
Heck, a vehicle only needs to be registered when a transfer of ownership occurs. Think about how much money could be saved!
That's all these people do, they take money, and force people to keep registering vehicles that are already registered.
What a racket.
That's a better con job than cable TV charging people to watch their commercials, that have already been paid for.
That’s why I loved N.H.At least you don’t need insurance.
Coming to a Dr’s office near you soon
...must be why they’re closing them......
Good! They should close on Thursdays, too! Most transactions can be done now by mail or online anyway.
Make an appointment on line in all cases. Maybe this means that that will be three weeks out instead of two. But for the usual stuff that you can’t do by mail, there’s no reason to walk in and stand in an hour-long line with illegals, illiterates, internet have-nots, and poor planners.
You can call in and make an appointment, for the illegals, illiterates, internet have-nots..
A transaction implies you pay for something, and get something in return...
Why stop at July? “Until further notice” works, and saves more money.
CHP, too?

BINGO! What will happen when we do survive with less? No need to have full time government employee’s with full time benefits. Less cost to the tax payer.
Something to think about....
