    Post: Trans. Code 708/Driver's License

    Posted by fred on 7/30/11


    My surcharge has been paid, my license suspension has been
    lifted, but I am being required by TDPS to pay $135($100
    Adm. + $35 SR22) plus an SR22 showing that I have
    insurance. I do not own a car and any car I drive has to be
    insured. This would result in double ins. My understanding
    is that I must have a 1 yr policy paid six months in
    advance. This results in a 4th level of penalty. I do not
    understand the requirement and costs, since insurance is
    not required to obtain a DL and a new DL doesn't cost $135.
    Under TC 601.051(1)-Subchapter D, I can get liability ins.
    and the right to drive, but TC 502.153(e)(2) states that
    you cannot operate a car with insurance under 601.051(1).
    There seems to be a conflict. My position, liability
    insurance should only apply to the driver, the car can't
    pay. It would saver a lot of paperwork and headaches ANYONE
    HAVE ANY INFO.
