ALERT: BMV locations back in action

COLUMBUS (AP) — Ohio’s Bureau of Motor Vehicles locations returned to normal operations Thursday following a statewide computer outage caused by defective hardware.

The computer system was back working slowly by about 3 p.m. Wednesday and was back to normal Thursday morning, according to Ohio Department of Public Safety spokeswoman Lindsay Komlanc.

The problem prevented the agency from issuing driver licenses and vehicle registrations for about five hours. The problem meant customers were turned away at all 217 of Ohio’s deputy registrar agencies.
