1st trip to the DMV in Bridgeport, 10:30AM to 11:30AM:
Filled out forms, attempting to transfer auto registration from MA to CT.
Problem: Registration transfer impossible without first obtaining a CT driver's license.
Requirements for obtaining license: Birth certificate or passport, proof of residency.
Location of these items: at home.
2nd trip to the DMV in Bridgeport, 12:30PM to 5:15PM:
Time spent waiting in a crowded back room to go up to a counter, look into a pair of goggles and answer five questions, constituting the state's official vision test: 3.5 hours.
Time elapsed for vision test: 25 seconds.
Time spent waiting to pay and get license photo taken: 1.5 hours.
Time elapsed for photo, printing, laminating and delivery: 3 minutes.
Total time: 6.5 hours
Total spent: $117
Beauty part: I still have to go back tomorrow to take care of the original issue, the registration. And pay more fees.
Me: all set with bureaucracy for next several years.
Hell: Connecticut.

Connecticut driver's have licenses?
I think of it more as a receipt. Give the corrupt government of this cruddy little state a bunch of money, and you get this nice laminated card with your picture on it as proof of payment. It definitely doesn't mean people around here are fit to drive!
