Have a summer road trip planned but your driving documents are expired? Fear not.

D.C. officials are reminding drivers that any licenses, vehicle registrations, or car inspections that expired after March 1 will remain valid for 45 days after the end of the COVID-19 public health emergency. That emergency is expected to run through at least early October.

The D.C. Department of Motor Vehicles is also providing an official letter that drivers can print out and carry with them, in case they’re stopped or ticketed for expired driving documents while outside of the city.

Although DMV locations have been open since the city entered its Phase 2 reopening last month, they’ve only been taking people with appointments. But the demand has strained the department, leading some appointments for renewing licenses and registrations to be scheduled for late November.

On Monday, the DMV also announced that it would indefinitely close its Rhode Island Avenue Service Center as of Aug. 10, citing “increased staffing shortage at that location” in an email. All other service centers will continue to take appointments, according to the department.

Our Rhode Island Service Center located at 2350 Washington Place, NE will be closed indefinitely beginning 8/10/2020. Appointments will continue to be available at all other service centers. Schedule appointments at https://t.co/szGbOYeGWN.

DMV officials also point out that most basic services, like renewing a driver’s license or car registration, can be completed online. Still, in light of the coronavirus pandemic, the District has advised residents to avoid non-essential travel beyond the Washington region, urging that people who go outside D.C. check state-level restrictions and consider quarantining themselves for 14 days after returning to the city.
