The manual use page doesn't exist on the DMV site anymore: https://www.dmv.ca.gov/wasapp/ipp2/startPers.do

When running the program from CLI, a browser window comes up that says "page not found" (same image as above), then produces this error in the terminal:

node:internal/process/promises:289
            triggerUncaughtException(err, true /* fromPromise */);
            ^

page.click: Timeout 30000ms exceeded.
Call log:
  - waiting for locator('text=Order personalized plates')

Uh oh! Do you know what the new URL is? Wanna take a shot at opening a PR to fix the issue?
