On a somewhat different not, I had a correlating experience when I updated the address on my then-current driver license a few years ago. When I moved from Dallas to Houston, I had to go to the DPS office to update my DL. I didn't really think much of it, since I've always preferred face-to-face transactions for such things--especially given that I came from a smaller county where the DPS office rarely had lines more than about 8 deep.

Then about 3 years later I moved within Houston. By then I had a CHL, and was somewhat more diligent about immediately updating my address on my DL. It was then that I faced the irony that as a CHL/CDL holder I can update my address online for my CHL, but because of security requirements, must do all CDL transactions in person at a DPS office.

Want to carry a gun in public--update your address online, no worries. Want to operate a *gasp* commercial vehicle -- we gotta see you in person.

Makes about as much sense to me as two tails on a hound dog.
