Six more Secretary of
State offices will offer the innovative MI-TIME Line service that allows
customers to use their phones or computers to make appointments or hold their
place in line, Secretary Johnson announced on June 30.
“Customers who can’t
hop online to ExpressSOS.com
now can take advantage of the MI-TIME
Line service at six new offices,” Johnson said. “After you get in
line, you can run other errands or wait from home or work until you’re ready to
be called up.”
MI-TIME Line sends
text updates to notify customers of their estimated wait time and allows them to
request more time if needed. Those who don’t have a mobile phone can check in at
the MI-TIME Line kiosk and get a printed ticket.
Johnson made the
announcement at the Livingston County PLUS Office in Genoa Township, which began
offering MI-TIME Line this month. Secretary of State offices in Novi and Macomb
County’s Chesterfield and Shelby townships also added the service this month,
and it’s planned to launch in the Holland and Traverse City offices next week.

Michigan's seat belt use rate increased to 94.5 percent this year from 92.8 percent in 2015, according to a Michigan State University study announced by the Michigan Office of Highway Safety Planning.
It is estimated that every 1 percent increase in seat belt use means an estimated fewer 10 traffic deaths and 100 fewer serious injuries.
National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) statistics show that in 2015 seat belt use in the United States ranged from 69.5 percent in New Hampshire to 97.3 percent in California and Georgia.
