NEW JERSEY More changes have come to the New Jersey Motor Vehicle Commission now that the agency continues to deal with the impact of the coronavirus pandemic.
Brenda Sue Fulton, the chief administrator of the Motor Vehicle Commission, said the agency has overhauled its technical infrastructure to help move the vast majority of transactions online. Not that things are rosy, now – far from it. Not when six to 12 agencies are closed due to staff quarantines on any given day, Fulton told the state Senate Budget and Appropriations Committee on Thursday. Hearing that we are doing 20 percent more transactions than before COVID is no consolation if it s your appointment that was canceled.
3 MVC agencies closed, frustrating drivers whose appointments get canceled
Updated 11:40 AM;
Three state Motor Vehicle Commission agencies that closed due to employees testing positive for COVID-19 at facilities in Toms River, Cherry Hill and Bayonne apparently caught some drivers who had appointments by surprise.
It may also have been the wording of alerts they received from the MVC that their appointments had been canceled due to an “unexpected outage/closure.”
An MVC spokesman confirmed that the outage was the shutdown of those three agencies due to the coronavirus and not because of a larger issue.
DMV did it again..
Did anybody else received this mail, this is the 2nd time DMV cancelled my appointment and now do I have to wait for another month to get the appointment? @NJ MVCpic.twitter.com/BmRTwuv9Ud Piyush Thakur (@piyush thakur15) April 20, 2021

The NJ MVC reportedly does 75 percent of its business online now, according to Patch.com, 40 percent more than pre-pandemic.
MVC spokesperson William Connolly tells Patch.com, We [MVC] add thousands of appointments daily to our nearly 40 agency locations throughout the state. Appointments are only needed for a handful of services now.
More services available online probably come as a relief to many New Jersey motorists who ve endured long lines at MVC, or not been able to get visit at all as 10 locations are currently closed due to employees contracting coronavirus.
