Politics / Humor - Budget cutbacks fall on RMV
Due to a $2 million budget reduction, the Massachusetts Registry of Motor Vehicles will cut branch hours. But shorter hours won’t be the only noticeable changes in customer service.

  • The eye test will now consist of answering the following question: How many middle fingers am I holding up?
  • Road tests will now include driving RMV employees to Dunkin Donuts.
  • Customer lines will be automatically closed when they reach the New Hampshire border.
  • Bring your own license photo. However, naked pictures will not be allowed for people more than 25 pounds overweight.
  • Registrar Rachel Kaprielian will listen to all complaints -- but only from an underground bunker in an undisclosed location.
