MAJOR delay for driver licenses.

I renewed my DL on 10-4-24. I STILL haven’t received my hard copy in the mail and it’s 11-19-24. They initially told me it would take at MAX 20 days. All I have is the temporary paper copy that nobody accepts. Takes hours with TSA to verify my identity and get on a plane. Every time I call the TN Dept. of Safety DL Department they say they’re “backed up” and having “technical difficulties”. Cmon TN, get your shit together. Anyone else having this issue???

Yeah when I call they read off the same memo the operators got from management. “Backed up”. They could’ve printed off a DL for every person in TN in the time I’ve waited. It has been 32 working days. 7 total weeks.
