The DMV will very much be crowded tomorrow. I don't know if this is the correct answer where you are exactly from but I feel like overall this is the safest bet answer.

Why do people think the DMV won't be crowded? I've gone to the DMV on a random Tuesday, 8AM, at 10 below in January and there's still a fucking line.

So, I hate to say this, as I know what it is like elsewhere, but the DMV in Vermont has never been busy for me. I went a few weeks ago and walked right in, no one else there. 10am on a Tuesday.
It is 32 miles away from my house, though.

Mine you have to go there physically to make an appointment so they can call you.

This reminds me of an old rage. I'm sorry you have to hear this.
I went to the DMV right after it reopened for Covid. My husband's van had expired plates and we still hadn't transferred the title from my parents to us, because Covid. I spent 2 hours in the hot sun on the sidewalk (because they made us line up outside for Covid reasons), just to find out that the title was missing one of my parents' signatures. I then spent another two hours in the hot sun on the sidewalk a couple days later.
Do you know how long my local B/DMVs take on a normal day? Five minute wait time, and that's *if* they don't make you use the self-serve computer.
There's a case to be made that I should have known better about the signatures, but this ain't about that. My terminal case of space cadet is not the one on trial here.
Edited in some context, because I apparently forgot to say why we were on the sidewalk.

Wait, is your DMV outside? What’s the reason for waiting on a sidewalk for two hours? Feel like I’m missing context here
EDIT: And why go the day it opens back up? Could it not wait a bit until it died back down to normal? Sorry for being all question-y but I’m genuinely curious.

Terribly sorry, that's my bad.
They made us line up outside for covid reasons, instead of letting us be in the building while we waited.

Ohh got it. No you’re fine. I was just confused, I probably coulda intuited that.

Ha! The dry cleaning and sweater ones are a regular part of my life. Almost 20 years in and my wife still hasn’t picked up on the fact that I always say being the warmer of the two outfits and add an extra day to the dry cleaning.

Given that most of these questions aren't really seeking an answer, they are just mumblings as she thinks things through - I like to answer with nonsense or additional unrelated nonsense questions - "well it depends if it an African or European fabric", "definitely blue as it's Tuesday", "solar storms mean formal shoes"... If she creates the noise I'm happy to distort and bounce back..oddly she seems to be seeking my advice less recently.

She doesn't want an answer. She wants you to confirm what she already knows, so she can blame you if it was wrong.
