CHARLESTON, W.Va. — An experienced manager in the automobile industry will become the new commissioner of the state Division of Motor Vehicles next week following an appointment Thursday by Gov. Jim Justice.

Everett Frazier

Justice has named Wyoming County resident Everett Frazier to the position.

Frazier, who was mostly recently the director of operations at the Thornhill GM Superstore in Logan County, brings “successful experience and leadership” to the DMV post, Justice said.

“I am confident he will help us to improve the operation and services provided by the DMV,” Justice said in a Thursday news release.

Frazier and his wife live in Oceana.

“I would like to thank Governor Justice for appointing me to a position that presents a real opportunity to make a positive impact on our great state,” Frazier said. “My goal is to treat everyone who comes through the door of the DMV as a guest. “I am looking forward to being part of a team that will maximize the use of technology to make the DMV more efficient and customer-friendly.”

Frazier resigned his membership on the state Board of Pharmacy to take the DMV appointment.
