May 28, 2026 Well, it was that time to renew my CDL…read more Although I retired in 2024, I've maintained my license for 31 years and it's hard to have just a regular license. That last time I came here, the experience wasn't bad but not as good as my latest visit. It wasn't crowded and I didn't have an appointment. After checking in, my wait was maybe 10 minutes. I was called up, provided proof of residency, took mu picture and then completed testing (HazMat). I should receive my renewed license in approx. two weeks. Seamless process. If you have a commercial license, don't waste you time at a non-CDL DMV. There's only a handful of commercial DMV's in the state. Check the CA DMV website for a facility near you. It's worth it!

I had a 1pm appointment today for a Drive test. When I arrived at 12:45 there were nearly 20 people…read morewaiting for Drive tests; The clerk said I was behind them and that my appointment was given no precedence! In the half hour I waited, they started one test! That same clerk said they close at 4pm and if you haven't been called (which was clearly gonna happen) you just have to leave and try again another day. Typical DMV California government bureaucracy.

I have seen a lot of attitudes from a lot of the workers here and talking amongst themselves…read moretalking crap to customers and making them feel bad. When I went, I asked one lady if she knew where her coworker went? She said, probably on a break and I asked how long is a break? She responded but looked annoyed that I even asked her. While I was waiting, I had no idea if she just went on break, so I asked another lady if she knew how long ago that she left because I wanted to go to the bathroom and didn't want to come back and have someone else take my place while I went to the bathroom. The lady I asked was rude. She said that other lady answered my question. In my head I said , no she didnt? This is a new question. But everytime I tried to ask her she cut me off and kept telling me to go sit down and wait . She looked upset that I even bothered her while she was talking to her other coworker and looked very annoyed . Terrible customer service. The lady that helped me that I had to come back to, was such a good hearted women! She went above and beyond for me to get me the help that I needed. After explaining what that other co worker said, I was told, thats her supervisor! Really! She should be written up for having an attitude and being a rude person. I know you all see a lot of people, but you choose to be in a business for customer service, yet most of you treat people like their stupid and treat them rudely. Imagine this kind of treatment was done to you or your Mother, Father, daughter or son. Maybe your Grandmother. How would you feel! Shame on you who treat people rudely. Why don't you all quit and get other jobs where you're not an A-hole to us people who need help? I pray you turn your anger or attitudes around and really help people who are there to get help.

I've lived in Hawthorne most of my life and I am EMBARRASSED that there are some employees at this…read moreDMV who behave as they do! Some of the employees have a rude way of speaking and a poor attitude toward people, and they just want to rush them through without listening to them. Please, this behavior is an unattractive representation of the city! Most -- not all -- of the employees at this DMV need sensitivity training! They forget that YOU DO NOT KNOW WHAT PEOPLE ARE GOING THROUGH WHEN THEY COME IN. YOU DON'T KNOW IF THEY ARE FEELING SICK OR WELL, STRESSED OUT OR OVERWHELMED, GRIEVING, ETC., SO EXTRA PATIENCE, KINDNESS, AND POLITENESS IS A MUST! I shake my head .... This is why I prefer going to the Torrance branch even though it is a 20+ minute drive if there's no traffic! The Torrance branch has very good customer service! The good parts about my visit: in the beginning, the system mostly flowed to get customer's needs taken care of. Near the end, it got a little confusing as to where to go next after taking your picture, to get your provisional license. Some of the employees were polite and patient and explained things better than others, and I am grateful to them. Thank God for the few employees who are the light shining in darkness! I'm going to go back to this DMV just to find the QR code where you can share your concerns. I hope someone will listen and make a positive change over there!

Horrible. Unprofessional. Not helpful. Rude. That was my interaction with the clerk. Can you please…read morehire competent people who will take the time to listen to your situation. I'd rather get a robot, because at least you know why they are emotionless. The point of having human interactions is so that people are able to process the different situations and try to help. When the person is worse than a robot (acting robotic with procedures and giving you a horrible attitude) you are a worthless worker. The clerk made me wait 10 minutes for absolutely no reason. She just went off with no explanation, and came back with none too. Did not take the time to listen. Was rude.
