WETHERSFIELD, CT - Governor Dannel P. Malloy today ordered that all expiration dates and periods of validity for motor vehicle registrations, licenses, permits, certificates and other forms of credentials issued by or on behalf of the Department of Motor Vehicles be immediately extended until further notice due to the impact of the severe snow storm affecting the region.
“Due to the significant impact on Connecticut, the state is extending all motor vehicle deadlines and expiration dates until the storm has ended and we can assess its effects. People cannot right now meet these deadlines, especially since we want people to stay at home and avoid the severe weather,” Commissioner Melody A. Currey said.
Motor vehicle deadlines and expiration dates will be extended to a date that has yet to be determined.
