    Texas to add 100 employees at DPS 'mega centers' to end 8-hour waits for drivers. It takes too long to get a license. This will help. Also most Texans can renew online with no wait at all. #txlege ⁦@TxDPS⁩https://www.dallasnews.com/news/news/2018/08/09/dps-hire-100-new-employees-combat-insane-waits-drivers-mega-centers …

        It only became this nightmare after YOU & other republicans came to power in Texas. Y'all are the ones who messed it up & now you want credit for fixing it? WORST GOVERNOR EVER

        Yes our big problem is long lines at the DMV! Damn republicans! Places like California are dealing with endless homeless camps, hypodermic needles in the gutters and people shitting on the sidewalks. Who’s in charge there? Yup, Democrats. Care to try again?

        Need to hire someone to come in and figure out a way to fix the process. Ridiculous to have to line up hours before opening.

        Look no futher for the pragmatic reason the state should stay out of most human interaction. What a complete failure. No market prices no efficiency.

        Should make it where if you can submit a recent picture and a recent eye doctor exam report that you can also renew online even on those 12 year rotations. Leave the inpersons to first timers.

        Even with appointment it’s a 4-6 hr wait. Governor, with all due respect this is an embarrassment. Most employees are great, some are extremely rude including troopers. We can do a lot better.

        Public service is certainly a vocation. Nurses, restaurant servers, etc all deal with what you described....and most smile! As said most at DPS are doing a great job with what they have. Process is bad. Doesn’t excuse the rudeness of a few though. Courtesy is in their motto!

        The waits are ridiculous. No business would operate this way. Fix it ASAP!!

        Thank you, sir! Please consider also adding staff to process CDL testing. School districts are scrambling to find bus drivers, and the wait to test is months long. We want all students in class on time! Thank you for your consideration.
