State Departments of Motor Vehicles (DMVs)

State Departments of Motor Vehicles (DMVs) are government agencies responsible for overseeing vehicle registration, driver licensing, and the enforcement of road safety regulations. They manage the process of issuing driver's licenses, vehicle titles, and license plates, as well as conducting driving tests. DMVs also maintain records of traffic violations and vehicle ownership. Their goal is to ensure safe and legal operation of vehicles on public roads, contributing to overall transportation safety. Services can vary by state, and many DMVs now offer online options for convenience.
