TOPEKA, Kan. — Officials say that the system for issuing driver’s licenses and Kansas identification cards is down across the state because of a problem with a vendor’s server.
According to officials, the outage affects driver’s license exam stations run by the state and those in various county treasurers’ offices. The titles and registration system is unaffected by the outage.
“We recognize this is a great inconvenience for Kansans trying to get a new driver’s license or renew an old one,” said Division of Vehicles Director Donna Shelite in a statement on Tuesday morning. “Our people are working closely with the vendor to ensure the system is up and running as soon as possible statewide.”
A replacement part for the problem server has been ordered and the Kansas Department of Revenue hopes to have the system back online by Tuesday afternoon.
