This place is seriously- the worst. It's likened to the phenomena some great whales are known for: their whale graveyards. You come to the DMV to die (literally, wasting your breath here, soul taker).

If you get this creature for your drivers test, she will fail you and yell at you. It makes her life better. Also, she seems to believe she is a doctor of some kind.

DMVs by nature aren’t pleasant, but this is the most efficient with the friendliest service .

No need to make an appointment if you are just registering your car! This location has a self service kiosk THAT ACCEPTS MOST MAJOR CREDIT CARDS!!! The kiosk prints your sticker and card for you! Yay!

Christian S.

God help you if you find yourself here. I hope you plan on drinking afterwards. You will need it!

Eva Tsang

Never ever EVER under any circumstances take the 11:30 or 11:45 driving test appointment . You'll wait for 1.5 hours. Come well before lunch or after. These fuckers all take lunch at the same time.

Megan Dixon Kao

Parking is a joke. Just park across the street at the shopping center to save yourself the headache.

Luigi

Awesome place ! Hahaha....it's like hell without the flames !

Alper Sinan Akyürek

If you are eligible for SSN and don't have one, you have to take the number first or your application is denied.

Touvan Sughiarto

I think if you add a tip jar to each persons station, it would incentivize them on working faster. Otherwise, this place can burn in flames.

Aaron Ramos

Show up at 4:55 and you will be in and out in 15min. They all want to go home!!!

Sain

remember to bring ur i94

Carlos

Even with an appointment you'll spend your day here. What a nightmare.

Jayakanth Dornadula

Make an appointment and you are done in 45 mins!

Vanessa Kampnich

They sure are not very helpful! You should be able to come out with your questions answered. Not more angry!

Steve Johnson

Don't make these guys smile..they just make you feel sooo warm and fuzzy!

Gouda

Come early, before doors open to this 3rd World Country !! Listen to music on your ipod to drown out the ugly energy being produced here...

Jeremy Silverstein

Renew your driver's license so you can get into bars . Sometimes they won't let you in.

Jennifer Juckett

I went Wednesday at 11 am for replacement drivers license. In and out in 15-20 minutes. Was amazing.

Jessica H.

Credit cards are acceptable at Self Service Terminal only!

Mark Bock

If you don't have an appointment , walk in at about 4:15 PM. They close at 5:00.

Geoffrey Adams

Go either before their lunch break, or right before they close..

The lines are as long as Disney World, except it's the UNhappiest place on earth.

This place is a disaster. The employees that work here should be embarrassed by the ineptness.

Ricky Dude

Line starts way before 8...around 7 if you don't have an appointment .

Lena Wright

Don't try to make jokes everyone's in a bad mood hahah

Guitarist

I love this DMV. I'd rather drive here than to the one in Chula Vista although it's closer. Everyone is super fast and helpful.

Brooks Fuller

Don't come here if you can help it. These workers treat you like crap. I can't believe they are allowed to have such poor customer service.

Nicole Kirby

I had an appointment and they called me up before I could even fill out the forms. DL renewal including new pic took less than 15 min. Make an appointment , its worth it!

Lexie Kennedy

Reasonable lines , staff is friendly , but it is still the DMV.

Leroy Tom

Not to much people on Monday

Susan B
