ATTORNEY COMMENT
New Mexico has got to be the friendliest, most helpful DMV in the
nation. The employees who field public phone calls are truly nice
people, and I've contacted them periodically over a span of 20+
years. Whether it's NM weather, culture, lifestyle, or DMV work environment -
congratulations.
