Anyone else feel like you need to take a week vacation to get your drivers license renewed? Jesus Christ the lines are ridiculous!

It is an inexcusable failure of state government. Gov Abbot said earlier this year "the way DPS has handled driver's licenses in the state of Texas is despicable, and it has been nonresponsive," It's so bad in Dallas (4-5 hours) my son who lives there took a day off, spent the night with us in Aledo and got his license the next morning in Weatherford and it took 30 minutes

Find a location that lets you get in line online. I did that this morning at the Gessner "License Super Center" in Houston. I checked in online at 9:30 am and my given arrival time was 10:22 am. I got there 10 minutes early, renewed, and was out of there before 11 am.
The place is hectic and dirty but it didn't take long.

Never had to wait more than about 30 minutes. But I have the luxury of living in a smaller town and off during the week so I can go at any time during the day.
I may get bashed on here, but I think the long waits are a combination of a couple of things.
1. Slow workers, they get paid by the hour, so why hurry?
2. Non English speaking people. Major hindrance.
3. ID theft has caused major changes to "prove" you are who you are.
4. Incompetent authorities in Austin. They don't care.
5. Ill prepared people going to get licenses because of #3.
6. People trying to wait till the last minute.
7. People that take up a lot of time because they don't understand why they can't renew just because they haven't paid fines, have warrants, haven't paid child support, etc.
