Providence City Hall — Local services in Providence

Because she was told NOT to turn in her plates by a DMV employee, she has to go without a license until the very first available appointment in 7 days in South County and she lives in Providence County. There is no common sense to the process. Shame on the State of Rhode Island's highly...
