A second massive computer crash in a week shut down state computer systems, once again halting business at al Motor Vehicle agencies.

The issue is a larger problem with the state computer system run by the Office of Information Technology, Motor Vehicle Commission officials said.

It comes on the heels of a similar problem on the weekend of June 2 that left MVC agencies unable to renew driver's licenses, title and register vehicles or do any transaction until they were fixed by the afternoon of June 4.

"It's a residual affect from last week's (computer) server issue," said Sandy Grossman, an MVC spokeswoman.

That means the MVC cannot process transaction on-line or in agencies, she said. Officials at the state Office of Information Technology could not be reached to answer questions about the extent of the problem.

Once again, drivers who arrived at agencies expecting to conduct business on Monday morning were left disappointed.

Bloop bloop state of NJ can you fix your DMV system please???? I couldn’t get my car because the website for temp plates was down and I can’t get my license because the state system is down again. Thank you, New Jersey! Very Cool! — lettuceman (@SeanAndJunic) June 11, 2018

The MVC is still in the process of upgrading computer systems after a failed decades long program to replacing aging IT systems was bounced from company to company due to mergers. Other state motor vehicle departments that undertook similar computer upgrades also experienced delays.
