Good advice...Rudy C told me he went to the one downtown after seeing the line in LV and was in and out in about 5 minutes because that office only does renewals. I considered it but stuck it out at the LV office.

Well I just called both my options.

Decater is a 45 minutes wait but 30 minutes away.

Denton says 1.5 hour wait.

Ill prob just go to denton one.

Denton will take forever. Good look finding a parking spot.

Lewisville isn't too bad. 2.5 hours max.

Carrollton (trinity mills and old denton) is a beating.

I always scan my drivers license when I get a new one. That way if I lose it, I can get a new one online.

The first part of last week, my bride spent a little over 3 hours in line at the LV office to get a renewal. She got done about 1 in the afternoon, and said there was hardly a line after lunch. Hope this helps.

Go 20 minutes early and stand in line. It will be short then.

I did this on my last renew. I was second in line and by the time I left it looked like it was a 1 hour wait.

Every so many years you cannot renew online...you have to go in person.

I just got through renewing my DL on line at texasonline.com a few minutes ago. Answer a few questions, put $25 on your credit card, print out the temp receipt and you good to go. No fuss, no bother, no standing in line.

Yep, I think it's every other renewal (by expiration) you have to appear in person. I had to do it this past summer. It sucked.
