Many DMV Services Now Available Online

The Chippewa Falls Police Department would like to make area residents aware that a number of driver’s license and vehicle registration services are now available “online”. For those who have internet capabilities many questions, updates and renewals can be handled through the Department of Motor Vehicles website.  By utilizing these services motorists and vehicle owners may be able to avoid trying to make phone contact with, or waiting in line at, a regional DMV office or local law enforcement agency.  These services are also available 24 hrs a day and can be conducted at the convenience of the user.
