Calif. Seniors Can Skip DMV, Renew Drivers Licenses by Mail Thanks to New Executive Order

In California, seniors age 70 and older can avoid a trip to Department of Motor Vehicles offices during the pandemic, reports KABC-TV . Earlier this week, Gov. Gavin Newsom issued an executive order that permits seniors to renew their drivers licenses by mail. The goal is to limit in-person transactions at the DMV and encourage a COVID-19 vulnerable population to stay safe at home. Newsom's previous orders gave extensions to at-risk populations, including senior adults. "Most other drivers are eligible to renew their license by mail or online," according to KABC.
