New bill would let California drivers register vehicle every other year

Drivers could soon register their cars with the DMV every other year, instead of every year! A new Senate Bill would make registration periods for every other year starting July 1, 2020.

If passed, the bill would also make it illegal to sell or offer to sell appointment reservations with the DMV. Offenders could face a fine up to $2,500.

Many people have complained about the long wait times at the DMV. Gov. Gavin Newsom is calling to change the department's management and resolve issues like those long lines.
