Customers may experience longer than normal wait times at tag offices following the upgrade, officials said. They suggested vehicle owners with renewal dates in May and June, who normally renew in person, to do so prior to May 20. Those who renew online will not experience delays.
The Georgia Department of Revenue is installing a new, Georgia Driver Record and Integrated Vehicle Enterprise System. Officials said DRIVES will enable more self-service options, improve customer service and enhance data integrity. Information: https://bit.ly/2VgLvNM
