Americans grounded without REAL ID, long DMV waits turn to other options

[jbycho 756]

I don't feel sorry for anyone who is struggling now trying to get their Real IDs.

I got mine like 2 or 3 years ago.

 

Americans coast to coast are rushing to obtain REAL IDs while many motor vehicle bureaus are grappling to accommodate appointments. 

With the deadline of May 7 approaching, air travelers at domestic airports and people entering some federal buildings must have a REAL ID.

Some Americans are considering alternatives if they're struggling to get DMV appointments to obtain the new identification. 

On Monday in New Jersey, the Department of Motor Vehicles (NJDMV) website showed "0 appointments available" for REAL ID services on its site; it has now added additional time slots. 

Virginia DMVs have launched Saturday events for people to get their REAL IDs, while some offices in California have extended their hours.

In CO anyone who renewed their DL in like the last 10 years has Real ID.

It's getting worse as it moves further left but that's another thread.

I'm not either. The government already knows everything about me. Both the feds and the state know I've lived in the same house at the same address since I purchased it in 1994.

Filed both state and federal tax returns every year & zero trouble with the law. Fock that
