  1. 15 days
  2. 30 days
  3. 60 days
  4. 90 days

Answer: B — 30 days

In Tennessee, it is required for individuals to report a change of address to the Department of Motor Vehicles within 30 days of moving. This timeframe ensures that the DMV has the most current information, which is essential for maintaining accurate records and ensuring that all communications related to licensing and vehicle registration are sent to the correct address. Not updating your address within this period may lead to delays in receiving important documents or notifications regarding your driver's license or vehicle status. Thus, timely reporting plays a crucial role in keeping your records up to date and avoiding potential issues with law enforcement or during vehicle inspections.
