The Nevada DMV
Can you go to the AAA to get a car registered or renewed like you can in CA....NO.... Off to DMV Land then...BuenoDias, Si Habla Espanola....Welcome to the 3rd World....("This is Radio Clash" should be playing in the background to this post)
First you have to have your car smoged, no matter if it's new or not...and to be exempt it has to be 45 years old....in CA if's it's older than 1973 no smog test required.....well thats $16.99 and they are all over town....like Photo Huts....a machine, your vin # and a rod stuck up your tail pipe, and 5 minutes later you feel so much better because you passed the test.
Second you have to wait in a vehicle inspection line at the DMV where they check you Vin #, and give you a certificate.
Then upon entering the building you have to stand in information line to get a number so you can be waited upon, thats 30 minutes...in a never ending line. I told the DMV guy who waited on me in the information line..that if I had to do this for 40 hours a week for 40 years I'd blow my brains out now...a never ending line of halfwits, misfits and nitwits....he had a sense of humor he laughed...
Once you have your number, you get to wait till it's called....Oh thats just a 100 people ahead of you...just another 3 hours... Once your called they ask you for
Your Social Security Card
Your outa state Drivers License
Your current car Registration
Your Smog Certificate
Your proof of NEVADA Liability Insurance
Your vehicle inspection certification
Your outa state License Plates
And if you don't have anyone of those items it's back to the Information line....
Now that you've passed and all your paperwork is correct now they give you your license plates, registration and tell you to go stand in line to get your photgraph taken for your DL....thats just ...another 30 minutes and another 15 minutes waiting for them to process your picture to make your license...And this was all late on a Friday afternoon when all the DMV people were working quickly to go home for the weekend...imagine Monday mornining when they're all hungover...Welcome to the 3rd world I mean Nevada...
