Waiting for 30 minutes to access the Web site of the Road Safety Authority, the Irish equivalent of the DMV. Too bad they don’t have physical offices where I could queue personally…

      Somehow I don’t think the DMV (or equivalent) would receive the same amount of traffic.

        Maybe there are “peak seasons” where everyone rushes onto the server to get something done hours before a national deadline or something? No appreciable traffic 50 weeks of the year year, but total chaos in the remaining two. Not an uncommon thing for certain offices and agencies.
