Just tried it. Said no times are available in Jackson.

Cops don't need to be running computer systems and cops don't need to be administrating.

Thank you KF for not erroneously calling it the DMV.

The legislature appropriated $ last session to correct the problem. WHERE did THAT $ go?
MPH does not WANT to correct the problem.
My opinion izzz that Marshall Fisher has long been retired on the hi

Only in government do press releases take the place of actual execution.

Maybe next year instead of patting themselves on the back about a trooper school unleashing more traffic cops to make those lines even longer we can have a school for folks to renew licenses, accept payment for speeding tickets, administer driving tests, etc.

This of course assumes that each transaction will be completed in the allotted time, and that all staff show up for work that day, it will also require the staff to actually WORK instead of sitting on ass, shooting the shit and playing grab ass while they're supposed to be serving taxpayers - I have ZERO FAITH that this will make a difference.

12:32- Who cares? Do you Fedex something when you really just mean send it overnight? Do you ever wipe your nose with a Kleenex when it is actually just a regular old tissue? Ever say Jacuzzi when it isn't actually a Jacuzzi brand but a generic jetted tub?

Good job! At least DPS realizes they have a problem (finally) and are doing something about it. Hope the pilot program works and they roll this out statewide because the current system is truly broken.

Take the short drive to Kosciusko. Once you do you'll never waste your time at Woodrow Wilson or Pearl again.

@2:53 understands how this works. This doesn't fix work ethic. Every time I've been, they have been adequately staffed to handle things in a timely manner. But they are lazy and slow. They don't care.

"At least DPS realizes they have a problem (finally) and are doing something about it."

Nope. Bigshot legislators, etc. found out they have a problem and told them to fix it.

It’s past time to take the license function from MDPS. Fisher has used this to hold over the heads of the legislature for more operating costs since he has been at the helm. Either make the staff accountable or get a Department Head that actually wants to serve the citizens and manage employees.

DPS is typical of most any state, county or local govt agency. The employees that are behind the counters are rude, incompetent, poorly trained, have been in the same position for 20+ years and truly don't give a damn. If they were put in a corporate environment they wouldn't last a month before being terminated.

If state, county and local govt employees that serve the public were given mandatory quotas on the number of people they had to process in a day and that quota was what determined their pay things might change.

What ever happened to the 4 million dollar drivers license facility Madison County was going to build for DPS? The supes took money from every department for this and we haven't seen or heard squat from it since. Its probably getting spent on the mud hole at the corner of Sulphur springs road and hwy 17.

Appt for License or road test. You have to be kidding. Those dumbasses can’t check emails and be told to be available for appt they are dumb. Hell thats the problem. You can’t fix that with online services. Silly shit ever. People this won’t be fixed until you welcome a Gov to this state that cares less about making people happy and letting it run into the ground. Hood has a battle when he takes office. Will take a while to fix the DPS mess.

Shit... FISHER that’s the problem. Depleted all other agencies and placed ones to lead that can’t spell their names. Go interview the director of DMV, KF the damn man is a hammer handle. Dumb as shit. Please go see for your self why Driver License is crap. It’s leader once he says good morning he has told you everything he knows. What does the people expect. They don’t know! The ones in charge of this entity. That’s the damn problem. It’s nothing else. Computers made appts will further the mess. Y’all see!
