Dozens Receive Driver’s License Services In Century, Mobile Unit To Return Quarterly

February 6, 2019

Escambia County Tax Collector Scott Lunsford was pleased with the turnout for the Florida Licensing On Wheels (FLOW) mobile office in Century on Tuesday.

There were 45 people that took advantage of the available of the mobile motorist services, an event that was a partnership between Lunsford and the Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles at the Billy G. Ward Courthouse on North Century Boulevard.

There were 27 driver’s license transactions and eight motor vehicle registration renewals. Additionally 10 other people received information on how to get on their way to obtaining a valid license or identification card.

“It was a good turnout, and good to be able to provide these services in Century,” he said.

Lunsford said the mobile unit is slated to return to Century on a quarterly basis, with the next stop tentatively set for May.

FLOW is a stand-alone mobile office with technology to provide most motorists’ needs. The mobile unit provides a convenient method to renew a driver’s license, obtain a replacement driver’s license, conversion or reciprocation of out-of-state license, change a name or address on a current driver’s license or identification card, and get a first-time identification card. In addition to licensing services, the mobile unit also provides an opportunity to renew or replace a vehicle registration and apply, renew or replace disabled parking placards. Written and driving tests are not available from the FLOW unit.

    I was happy to learn that the FLOW mobile was gonna be in century that day. I needed to get my DL renewed and hated to have to make an app in moline. Then go all the way down there and wait, killing half a day. So I went to century. It was a great experience. Quick and painless. People were really nice. I was in and out in just a few minutes with my brand new license.!
