CHARLESTON, WV-
The West
Virginia Division of Motor Vehicles announced today that appointments are
now available through the DMV website, dmv.wv.gov. Starting next Tuesday,
May 26, ten DMV regional office locations will offer appointments for
services that must be completed in-person, such as customers who need to
take their driver knowledge or skills test or to transfer an out-of-state
driver's license.
The following locations will be available for appointments:
Kanawha City / Charleston
Winfield
Beckley
Charles Town / Kearneysville
Huntington
Moundsville
Fairmont
Flatwoods
Romney
Parkersburg
Customers may visit the
DMV website or use this link: go.wv.gov/DMVappointment to make an
appointment. DMV will be releasing a dedicated phone number next week
for customers who need to make an appointment but do not have internet
access.
"We will be focusing on the services that must be done in-person,
including transactions for customers who need to obtain an original
identification card, salesperson testing, changes to ID cards or driver's
licenses, and driver knowledge and skills testing," Commissioner of
the WV DMV Everett Frazier said.
Skills testing will be offered at nine
locations, all listed above minus the Winfield office. New courses
have been developed that will allow the driver examiner to observe the
driving from outside the car while the applicant completes the test with
a licensed parent or other licensed driver over the age of 21
accompanying the driver in the vehicle. Additional locations for
driver skills tests will be announced as they are made available.
Commissioner Frazier added, "We are excited to be resuming these
services and look forward to serving the citizens of West Virginia again
in-person. We thank them for their patience and continue to
encourage the use of our online services and our kiosks for those
transactions that don't have to be done in-person."
