An upcoming system upgrade to the Georgia Driver Record and Integrated Vehicle Enterprise System (DRIVES) will affect operations at Fayette County’s motor vehicle and tag office. Operations related to car tag renewals and vehicle registrations will be unavailable Jan. 13-18, including e-services and self-service kiosks. The county encourages vehicle owners with January tag renewal dates or issues with titles to complete their transactions before Jan. 13.
During Jan. 19-22, walk-in customers “may experience delays and longer-than-normal wait times,” which could affect those with February tag renewal deadlines as well. Car dealers will be able to initiate electronic titles and registrations and issue temporary operating permits over Martin Luther King Jr. weekend, and law enforcement officers will still have access to motor vehicle records using backup files. More information is at www.fayettecountypay.com.
