NH was always easy.. got our plates from the town clerk.
In most cases, just provide a vehicle title, pay a few dollars and go home with the plates.
No proof of insurance etc.
If the vehicle was over 20 years old all you needed was to pay a few dollars.
The drivers license required a visit to the DMV that took a couple hours that included an eye test, picture, a few documents if you wanted a “Real ID”, and the transfer of a few dollars.
Rant time…
My wife and I attempted to make an appointment to get NC drivers licenses but the soonest was sometime in late January. I called the DMV and they told me that the only way we could do it earlier was to go and stand in-line.
Today my wife and I gathered a bunch of paperwork and went to the DMV on Spring Forest Road. As expected we had to stand in line with a bunch of other people. A Nazi clerk yelled at everyone in the non-appointment line and told us that IF she let us in and we didn’t have ALL the required paper work we should go home. One of the documents she mentioned was verification of insurance, which we had.
Verification of automobile insurance for a drivers license did not make sense — it made sense for plates but not a license. I shut my mouth!
When we got inside she would not accept our insurance verification for my wife because her name was not on the paperwork.
Why in hell do you need automobile insurance to get a license ? Many states require insurance to register a vehicle but insurance to get a drivers license is idiotic. I know people that don't have cars but need a drivers license for rentals.
BTW - I talked to my insurance company. They provided the documents and laughed, saying sometimes clerks or state procedures are idiots… I agree.
Getting plates for the vehicles should be fun… will they require us to pass a rectal exam or prove we can piss in a bucket to get license plates?
