DMV field officers to open on Saturdays now

FRESNO, Calif. (KFSN) -- Some changes are coming to the DMV. Starting Saturday, field offices on Olive Avenue in Fresno, in Clovis, Merced, Modesto, Bakersfield, and Visalia will be open every Saturday from 8:00 a.m. until 5:00 p.m.

The move is an effort to cut down on customer wait times due to the implementation of the federal Real ID. Customers applying for a Real ID should visit the DMV's website to make sure they have the required documents before making a trip to a field office.

In all, 60 field offices statewide will offer Saturday service every weekend. However, behind the wheel exams are not available on weekends.
