DMV Adds New Emergency Contact Option

People in Wisconsin can now add their emergency contact information to their driver’s license.

The DMV yesterday announced a new option that will allow police officers to access an emergency contact when they run a driver’s license through their computer system. The new option is part of the new law that Governor Evers signed last year. Only law enforcement will be able to see the contact information. You can sign up online, and the DMV says you don’t need to go to a DMV office. CLICK HERE TO SEE MORE DETAILS.
