What makes you think public banks would be any better. Have you ever been to the DMV? At least with private banks you have the chance to switch to a less shitty bank or credit union; with a public bank you have no chance.
California’s DMVs are better than many private companies. They have walk-in times posted on the web. Friendly customer service. Security. Ample seating. A lot of self-service options. I honestly like the California DMV.
