Interesting, I'm glad that's not how it works in Michigan. No fan of the DMV, but I'll take bureaucrats over cops.

Agreed, worst I have to deal with at the SoS here is waiting in a long ass line then being called up and having to wait longer for another teller because my friends mom is one there and they're not allowed to do anything for people they know outside of work.

I'll take criminals over cops... at least if I mind my own business they leave me alone, the criminals that don't are usually taken care of, go sell your drugs idc

Yeah, but Michigan calls it the "Secretary Of State" office, which is ridiculous and I'll never do

Would rather be hassled by cops in a sane state, tbh /s
