DMV closes Forsyth County license plate agency
RURAL HALL, N.C. — The North Carolina Division of Motor Vehicles has closed a license plate agency over contract violations.

The Rural Hall License Plate Agency, located at 1014 Bethania-Rural Hall Road, was closed Tuesday after an investigation by the NCDMV’s License and Theft Bureau. Officials did not specify what activity caused the investigation, only stating that it warranted closure. An investigation is ongoing.

The office had been in operation at that location since 1989.

In the coming days, DMV workers will perform a final inventory audit of the agency and remove equipment and supplies that belong to the state.

License plate agencies offer services like vehicle registration, title transactions, license plate renewals, replacement tags and duplicate registrations. There are currently 126 license plate agencies operating in North Carolina.
