Some services at the DMV are still available, including Rapid Registration for first-time vehicle registration and Turbo Titles that allow people to apply for a new or duplicate title online. The DMV’s website is also back online.
Drivers’ tests are also continuing, and the department is waiving late fees or penalties due to the closure, according to Tonya Laney, director of the Nevada Department of Motor Vehicles.
As of Thursday, smog test results are being sent to the Department of Motor Vehicles, Laney said.
The department is also asking law enforcement agencies for leniency for individuals with expiring registrations or drivers licenses during the outage, Laney said Wednesday.
