How appointments work in Connecticut

Connecticut DMV books appointments online for license, ID, registration and CDL services, with separate scheduling systems for licenses and registrations, knowledge tests and road tests. Tests are appointment-only, and the DMV says residents should expect long waits without an appointment.
