Very nerve wracking experience trying to get my license renewed. I’m in the military and have not physically resided in Delaware for quite sometime, so understandably so I had to provide documentation to get my license renewed. No problem I provide the requested documentation. I was contacted a few weeks later and informed that certain documents were missing. I comply, but I expressed to the woman assisting me verbally and via email that I was in process of moving and asked her if she could mail my license to my brother’s address. She agreed, but my brother informed me that he never received my license in the mail. I reached back out to her and she tells me she sent the license to my previous address. I then provided her with a screenshot where I expressed where I wanted the license mailed that she claims she never saw, which I find hard to believe just seemed like gross negligence to me. She then agreed to send me another license. By now I was settled into my new place and gave her my new address and when I do she gives me attitude!

I know everybody makes mistakes and we sometimes get overwhelmed and i’m very lenient when it comes to these matters! But at the same time our transportation is very vital to our livelihood and these matters should be taken seriously with little margin for error! I also don’t appreciate being given attitude when it was her own incompetence that got us here...

Yesterday I had one of my worst experiences of my life. I had my practical exam and the instructor (black lady) is one of the worst person I’ve met in my life. Since she didn’t answer my “hello” I knew she had a bad attitude. The way she talked to me was very very rude !!! She gave some instruction that I could understand and she did not have patience and when she repeat them she raised her voiced and treat me worst that an animal, treated me like idiot. I was very very nervous I was shaking. Instead of give me an option that a translator could be with me she got off from the car and shout the door of the car very hard and went away. I don’t know why this kind of person works here. When I went for the fist time the lady that take my information and check my docs for the writing exam was very nice an polite. The sir that supervise me when I was doing the writing exam was absolutely polite and nice… I complained with her supervisor and she was polite and she heard me. I WILL COMPLAIN ABOUT THIS BECAUSE THIS KIND OF PERSON SHOULD NOT WORK IN A GOVERNMENT INSTITUTION!!!! She create a trauma on me !!!!!.. update: I came back and I passed my exam. The experience was much better. The people was nice with me .. I didn’t see the...
