PSA from the DMV

This is a reminder to remain vigilant when it comes to "Unpaid Ticket" and "Toll Violation" scam texts, as there has been an uptick in activity recently!

Please remember that SCDMV does not send texts to collect on unpaid tickets or tolls.

The only legitimate webpage is www.dmv.sc.gov; don't let a fake text redirect you or your money elsewhere.

On Memorial Day, we pause to honor the brave men and women whose sacrifices helped shape our nation. May their courage, strength, and resilience continue to inspire us as we move forward together.

This one habit behind the wheel can cause your insurance premiums to skyrocket!

Under South Carolina's new hands-free law, it is ILLEGAL to use or support a mobile device with any part of your body while driving. Choosing to break this law could result in fines and points assessed against your license — increasing the cost of your insurance premiums.

With the 100 Deadly Days of Summer beginning tomorrow, it is important now more than ever to put the phone down and just drive.

** SPECIAL ENFORCEMENT – MAY 22 – MAY 25 **

Motorists across South Carolina will see additional law enforcement over the next few days as the SC Department of Public Safety conducts special enforcement over the long Memorial Day weekend.

South Carolina Highway Patrol troopers and STP officers will focus on enforcing all traffic violations, with a special emphasis on impaired driving; speeding and aggressive driving; seatbelt usage; and distracted driving and hands-free violations. Troopers will be positioned every 10 miles on all major interstates to help enforce safe driving practices.

Memorial Day is the unofficial kickoff to summer and the official start of the 100 Deadly Days of Summer, when we historically see an increase in traffic fatalities. Please enjoy the season responsibly by buckling up, slowing down, and eliminating distractions. And remember — if alcohol is a part of your plans, designate a sober driver.
