secretary of state

The new option has been around since 2021 but some people are just now becoming aware of it.

If you recently moved to Michigan, you may be wondering how long you have before you need to get a Michigan driver's license. Well, that answer depends on a few factors.

Unlike most states who refer to it as the DMV, in Michigan the department that handles the registering of vehicles is called the Secretary of State. Why?

If you grab the little lever that turns your brights on and off to "flash" those other drivers on the roadways you could be breaking the law in Michigan.

A new year in Michigan means a fresh start for most of us, but it also triggers the start of a handful of new laws that were passed last year.

It's cheaper to replace your plates before you're pulled over because it's peeling and illegible.

A new bill from a Michigan lawmaker is aimed at shutting down a black market that's developed online for Secretary of State appointments.

Just days after Michigan Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson announced that her offices would open up another 350,000 appointments for Michiganders needing services, the state senate passed a package of bills that would extend license & registration times, waive some fees, and possibly force walk-in appointments at SOS locations despite Benson's recent moves away from them.

If you have been driving around lately, you may have noticed a lot of vehicles are out on the roads without license plates. I'm not talking about driving around with expired tags, but rather no metal license plate at all. Have people stopped buying license plates for their vehicle in 2020?

Your expired license or tags are still good until September 30th.
