DMV Relocates Driver to Unfortunate Locale on License

Ashlee Lineberger of Englewood recently mailed in her $48 renewal fee for a new license and when she got her new state-issued ID back in the mail, she noticed that she was no longer from Englewood.

Lineberger's husband, Charles, said after getting the run around on the phone with the state DMV, the couple went to the local DMV to get some answers. What they got was laughter and a quote for another fee if they wanted the license fixed.

"They thought it was hilarious like it was some kind of joke," he said. "Then they wanted us to pay for another license."

On Wednesday, state officials contacted Lineberger to apologize for the error and told her a new license - free of charge - would be in the mail. But she still doesn't have an answer to how she got the new address.

"It makes you wonder what these people are doing with all of this vital information if they can play around with a license like that," said Lineberger, who will be doing all her transactions in person from now on. "My view has changed that's for sure. You trust these people because they work for the government but somebody is obviously not doing their job."

I thought Illinois was bad at $30.  But Floriduh is $48?

Hey, I'd pay $48 for an official DL that says "EAT ASS."  She's going to be able to sell that thing for a lot more than that.

It's $50 in NH.  But it's good for 5 years.

I pay $65 for my license but I have a Class B commercial license (for driving school buses) and a motorcycle endorsement.

She's got the Safe Driver thingy too. If you don't get any tickets during your last renewal period then they throw on a couple of extra years as a bonus.

They jacked up the cost of a license plate renewal by something like 80% last September 1st. We folks lucky enough to be within a few months of that did get the option to renew for 2 years for the previous price x2.
