Official in the eyes of Big Brother
Three and a half hours, an oil change, smog check, license plate swap,
written test, $300, and a lot of sitting around waiting, and I’m
officially a California driver. Now I just get to wait several weeks
for my real license to show up and get a parking permit and I should be
done. If it wasn’t for the long wait, the San Francisco DMV would have
gotten two thumbs up. Everyone was nice and cheerful, even though it
was a monday.
