> Is the privatized NC DMV any better than the public one?

Nobody knows. But the only things guaranteed are:

- service prices will rise because now shareholders will seek a return every year.

- AI powered elevator music phone service where you must wait 30 mins before reaching a human.

- Fees and costs for every interaction.

- Workers will be encouraged to do work fast - by providing less service to people, asking people to come over and over again

- More lobbying to reduce license and registration durations because they need people to constantly renew to collect fees and profits.

About FedEx, I don't know why you think US post offices are bad. I personally find USPS to be astonishingly high quality and decent humans. FedEx is decent quality but 10x higher prices than USPS.
