94.3 the Wolf Country That'll Make You Howl!
Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear announced during Wednesday’s Team Kentucky Update that the state will be launching a new driver licensing system and online portal.
“In June, we will launch the Kentucky Information Network for Driver’s Licensing Computer System, called KINDL for short, to replace the nearly 40-year-old mainframe system we’re using now,” Beshear said. “This secure, easier to maintain system will modernize our driver’s licensing system and provide improved customer service in all of our offices.”
As part of the new system, Kentuckians will be able to create an account through the new myDrive online portal which will enable features such as pre-applying for a license, permit, or ID, requesting a replacement card, and checking current license standing, among other features. The new system will also streamline commercial driver licensing, allowing medical certificates to be accepted directly from approved providers.
In order to accommodate the migration of records to the new system ahead of the June 8 launch, driver licensing offices will close on June 4 and 5.
“Offices will reopen Monday, June 8 under the new system, then walk-in hours will be 8 a.m. to 12 p.m. through June 18,” Beshear said. “While once a month Saturday hours will not be hosted in June, we will offer two Saturday openings in May. That’s May 9 and May 30. Monthly Saturday hours will resume in July.”
If you are among the nearly 55,000 Kentuckians who have a license renewal date in June, don’t let the office closures delay you.
“We strongly encourage Kentuckians with any licensing needs in June to visit an office early,” Beshear said. “If your renewal is June 4 or 5, don’t wait. Go on in. If you need your REAL ID and haven’t gotten it, don’t wait until a trip on June 5 or on June 8. Plan ahead.”
Online and mail-in renewal options will remain available. Visit drive.ky.gov for more information.
Spring is in full swing, and as nature starts to awaken the Kentucky Department of Fish and Wildlife Resources is reminding the public to leave young wildlife undisturbed. Kentucky Fish and Wildlife says parent animals often leave their nest or young in a location they consider safe while they forage or hunt. Young animals may appear to have been left alone, but the parent is almost always nearby and will […]
