The Oregon law enforcement citation moratorium for expired driver licenses, permits, ID cards, and vehicle registration has been extended through October 1st.
A release from the Oregon Department of Transportation said the grace period is intended to allow Oregon residents to continue driving while they are waiting for an appointment, and the Department of Motor Vehicles, works through the backlog due to COVID-19 restrictions. The release said law enforcement can verify the status of a driver or vehicle electronically during a traffic stop.
Thirty-eight DMW offices started conducting in-person services on June 3rd. Services currently offered by appointment include:
*Driver license, permit and ID card issuance
*Driver knowledge tests
*Disabled parking permits
*Farm endorsements
*VIN inspections
At this time, drive tests are available only through DMV-authorized class C or CDL skills testing businesses. With a few limited exceptions, all other DMV services such as vehicle titles and registration are available online or by mail.
The release said DMV is accepting appointment requests online through the agency’s website and not by phone. To see if a needed service is available by appointment and to request an appointment, go to www.oregondmv.com
