state DMV (Department of Motor Vehicles)

The Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) is a state government agency responsible for managing vehicle registration and driver licensing. It handles tasks such as issuing driver's licenses, conducting driving tests, registering vehicles, and maintaining records related to drivers and vehicles. The DMV ensures that drivers meet safety standards and follow state regulations. It also plays a role in enforcing laws related to road safety and vehicle ownership. Each state has its own DMV, and the services and rules may vary, but the overall mission remains consistent: to promote safe and efficient transportation.
