While the hours are a bit of a pain, and the new system sucks... They've always been great to deal with and been helpful to resolve any issues that have come up with out of state transfers and commercial titles as well.

So I’m coming from experiences from the DMV’s in California. Getting a new drivers license and registration was incredibly peasant. This last visit I had to do because a car took out our mailbox thus taking out my vehicle registration. I had to pay $12 and a visit to the Clerk’s office. Even with a mask on I was helped so well and it was again, pleasant. The ladies here are wonderful.

If you’re not a people person you shouldn’t work with the public. They give Cynthiana government a bad reputation if you ask me.

The women here are nice and can get you in and out quickly. Unlike bigger cities I've lived in. Also Glenda rocks!

Horrible customer service as usual. Wouldn’t register my car because of voting even though 6 people were in the lobby doing nothing. Drove to Franklin County and was in and out in 5 minutes. Shameful State workers in Harrison, lazy and rude as usual.
