The newly installed self-service kiosks are intended to streamline various Driver Services transactions. These kiosks will allow customers to renew or replace Driver Licenses or ID Cards, change their address, update emergency contact details, advance a Teen or Graduated Driver License, pay reinstatement fees, and request a license reissue once reinstatement requirements are fulfilled. The kiosks are equipped to take photos and accept payments through Apple Pay, Google Pay, or credit and debit cards.
