## Trust breakdown

How this component scores in each security and reliability category. Every signal is checked automatically from public evidence about the published package, including repeated runs of it in an isolated sandbox, and we only credit what we can confirm. Scores are 0–100 per category. Scoring method: https://verifymcp.io/docs/scoring (what has changed: https://verifymcp.io/docs/scoring/changelog)

## MCP tools (3)

### `dc_dmv_offices` (~211 tokens)

Find a Washington DC DMV location — the District of Columbia Department of Motor Vehicles service centers where residents renew a license, register a vehicle or get a REAL ID, plus the Half Street inspection station, the two self-service emissions-inspection kiosks, the Deanwood road-test and CDL center, and Adjudication Services for ticket hearings. Returns street address, coordinates and the DMV website. Answers "DC DMV near Georgetown", "where is the DC vehicle inspection station", "DC DMV road test location", and "how many DMV service centers does Washington DC have". Covers all 9 published DMV locations.

Input parameters:

- `limit` (number|string): Max locations to return (default 25, max 50).
- `name` (string): Location-name substring, e.g. "Georgetown", "Benning", "Inspection", "Adjudication".
- `office_type` (string): Category substring: "service center", "inspection station", "kiosk", "road test", "adjudication".

### `dc_dmv_vehicle_inspections` (~365 tokens)

Look up Washington DC vehicle safety and emissions inspections by VIN, or count DC inspection volume over time. The District of Columbia DMV publishes 766,879 individual inspection records, each carrying the submitted VIN, the date the vehicle was inspected and the date that inspection expires, covering November 2020 to June 2026 and still being appended. Answers "when was VIN 1FMCU9BZ5NUA87486 last inspected in DC", "when does this car's DC inspection expire", "how many vehicles did DC inspect last month", and "DC inspection volume by month". A VIN prefix matches every vehicle of the same make, model and plant, so vin_prefix="1FMCU9BZ" counts one model line.

Input parameters:

- `expires_before` (string): Keep inspections expiring before this date, YYYY-MM-DD — the way to find vehicles due for re-inspection.
- `group_by` (string): none (default) returns individual inspection records; month or year returns inspection counts per period.
- `inspected_before` (string): Latest inspection date, YYYY-MM-DD, e.g. "2026-07-01".
- `inspected_since` (string): Earliest inspection date, YYYY-MM-DD, e.g. "2026-01-01".
- `limit` (number|string): Max records or periods to return (default 25, max 200).
- `vin` (string): Full 17-character VIN, e.g. "W1KAF4GB5SR257239". Case-insensitive.
- `vin_prefix` (string): Leading characters of a VIN, e.g. "1FMCU9BZ" — the first 8 identify make, model line and body, so this counts one model.

### `dc_dmv_convictions` (~316 tokens)

Count Washington DC traffic convictions by violation and court disposition, from the District of Columbia DMV conviction file — 330,728 citation records running from 2002 to 2026, each with the violation text (speeding, failure to use a seat belt, driving under the influence, no DC permit), the court disposition, and whether points were assessed. Answers "most common traffic violations in DC", "how many DUI convictions did DC record last year", "DC seat belt ticket convictions", and "what happens to DC speeding tickets in court". Group by violation or disposition, and narrow with a citation date range.

Input parameters:

- `before` (string): Latest citation date, YYYY-MM-DD, e.g. "2026-01-01".
- `code` (string): DC violation code, e.g. "T001", "T005".
- `disposition` (string): Court-disposition substring, e.g. "GUILTY", "LIABLE", "SUPERIOR".
- `group_by` (string): violation (default) counts convictions per violation; disposition counts them per court outcome; none returns individual citation records.
- `limit` (number|string): Max rows to return (default 25, max 200).
- `since` (string): Earliest citation date, YYYY-MM-DD, e.g. "2025-01-01".
- `violation` (string): Violation-text substring, e.g. "SPEED", "SEAT BELT", "INFLUENCE", "INSURANCE".

## Common questions

### What is the Dc Dmv MCP server?

Dc Dmv is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as io.github.pipeworx-io/dc-dmv. District of Columbia DMV MCP, DMV service centers, the record-level vehicle-inspection file, and… This page covers its npm package (@pipeworx/mcp-dc-dmv).

### Is the Dc Dmv MCP server safe to use?

Dc Dmv scores 81 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. We found no known CVEs affecting it as of 5 November 2026. It declares no install or post-install scripts. Its build provenance is signed and verified. That is a record of what we were able to check automatically, not an endorsement. The category breakdown on this page shows every signal behind the number, including the ones we could not confirm.

### What tools does the Dc Dmv MCP server expose?

Dc Dmv exposes 3 tools: dc_dmv_offices, dc_dmv_vehicle_inspections, dc_dmv_convictions. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 892 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

### Is the Dc Dmv MCP server still maintained?

Dc Dmv is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 5 November 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.

### What licence is the Dc Dmv MCP server under?

Dc Dmv declares the MIT licence, which is OSI-approved. That covers the source only, and says nothing about the cost of any service it calls.

### What did VerifyMCP test on the Dc Dmv MCP server?

VerifyMCP ran 16 checks on Dc Dmv, covering Malware scan, Known CVEs, Install scripts, Dependency health and 12 more. Endpoint Security and Transport & Reachability do not apply to an npm package, so they were not tested. The score does not measure everything, and the scoring documentation lists what it leaves out.
