Starting this month, limited Saturday service will be offered at 40 DMV offices statewide, including the office at 300 Brewster Ave. in Redwood City.
In an attempt to ease wait times, offices will open from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Saturday, June 16 and June 23, and will then transition to the first and third Saturday of each month from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m., beginning in July 2018, according to DMV. Behind-the-wheel exams will not be available Saturdays.
This will come as good news for locals. Just this afternoon on Facebook, someone posted, “DMV Redwood City – 4.5 hours waiting and still nowhere close to comping up — just renewing a drivers license that I couldn’t do online. Really? What is wrong?…”
