Either you are getting much worse treament than I am or you have a
different basis for comparison.

One of the few pleasant changes when we moved to Michigan from
Maryland was the speed of getting a vehicle-related  transaction done
at the Secretary of State offices. In Maryland, there were only a
handful of offices around the state, so most people had long drives
just to get to one. Then the wainting in line would often take three
to four hours before finding out that the office was then ready to close
or that they couldn't handle my needs because "the computer was down."

In ten years in Michigan, I have never had to wait more than twenty
minutes in a line at the Secretary of State. When I have mailed in
registration renewals, I have gotten the new tags within a week.

Seems pretty reasonable to me.
