He said, "We want to modernize the office, bring new technology to the office. So we announced our skip the line program which will allow people to actually schedule an appointment, get to the front of the line so they don't have to wait, just like you do in the private sector. We're going to put driver's licenses and IDs on peoples' mobile devices for those who want them. We're also going to have office kiosks at all the DMVs.
The secretary of state's office manages one of the largest databases in Illinois, keeping track of nearly 8.7 million drivers, 11 million registered vehicles and more than 450,000 corporations.
