FLORIDA — The Florida Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles (FLHSMV) said it is working to fix ongoing issues with driver's licenses and motor vehicle systems.

The state system is impacting tax collector services such as driver license renewals, auto and boat registration renewals and other services.

Florida residents are being told at the tax collector's office systems are down and to come back later.

Pasco County Tax Collector Mike Fasano called on the Florida Department of Motor Vehicles to tell customers what is going on.

“The solution is simple: tell the public what is wrong and how it is going to be fixed. End of Story,” Fasano said.
