I have a friend who has a kid (over 21) that got a DWI, probation for 1 yr., (first offense) and when this kid was able to go get his license he knew it would cost I think it was $125.00 but he went on-line and said it stated he had to call a 1-800#, that there was a "surcharge". He did call the 1-800 # and found there for a "surcharge" of $1000+ per yr. Had added up to like $3,000+ . The person at the 1-800# said a notice had been mailed to such-n-such address.....(FYI - which this kid had not lived at in like 5 yrs.). So I would like to know why the " surcharge notification" had not been sent to the address that was on his license when he was stopped & instead sent to an address from approximately 5 years before ?????? So now, this kid is stuck with a suspended license and each year another $1,000+ is being tallied????? Oh, yes, you can make a payment of $89.00 per month but I do not know if you get your license back while you are paying these payments or you have to wait until it is totally paid out to get your license back. So if you work & have no other way to get to your job except by driving, you are at risk/chancing getting stopped & being caught with a suspended license simply by trying to go to wk and pay this stupid "surcharge" ??? It is a vicious circle !!!!!! Duh....

This is horrible, they make it so hard to get your licence back they put you through all this trouble and payments just too find out you have to pay even more to the state of texas? recession because of jobs? Or because the government keeps taking everything me and my family have worked so hard for. one day they will all be judged and i certainly hope the ruling is worst than what this state has put me through.

Hate always, TG

I got a DWI in September 09 and before my 90 day suspension was over (I was granted an occupational), I paid my $125 reinstatement fee, however I learned that I had outstanding fees that I needed to pay and have finally since been able to pay those off. What steps do I take now to assure I get my license reinstated? Any information anyone could give me would be great. Thanks!

I received a ticket in 08 by receiving that ticket I was informed by the cop that my license was suspended. So I called Texas DPS office to confirm this and it was true so I pay the out of state ticket to show proof to Texas I paid it and I was allowed to reinstate my license. Two years go by I receive a letter from the DPS office in Austin that they plan on suspended my license for a ticket I receive in 08 the same ticket I had to show proof I paid to reinstated my license in 08. After fighting my case I end up with nothing they don't care that they send you out information as a company send out junk mail they just wanna screw you over at the end of the day.

I had a Ticket from 1998 that had been forgotten about in the city of Houston. That I tought that I paid for back then. Well this past June i got a letter in the mail from the City of Houston stateing that I owed 425.00 dollars. So I paid it so my DL would not get suppended or go to Jail. Well just yestraday I got letter in the mail from TDPS that I needs an SR22 or my DL would be suppended. I couldnt believe it so I called the customer service live after being on hold for 20 minutes the Lady on the phone told me yes I needed to file an SR22 with my insurance company. What a load of crap, come on give me a break fro 13 years ago the Texas Laws are so stupied some times. So I'm fileing the SR22 and getting a Lawer to fight this.

My licence was suspended due to a drug charge i got back in 2005. I am now married with a 9 month old and 7 months pregnant. I am not a drug user nor was i at the time of the conviction but i now am in need of my drivers licence. i called the Austin dps office for days trying to reach someone. A week later i finally spoke to a customer service rep who gives me a phone number for a drug class that i am supposed to take to reinstate my licence. i call the number and an automated service tells me i need to sign up for a $9.99/mth charge to recieve a text message with the information of a drug class that i need to take! no thank you! Im furious about this. upon finding out that this drug class is a 15 hour class and i have no idea how much it costs because no one wants to help me out, i have decided to look for alternatives to taking this class. I think it is unfair that something i was involved in during my high school days 6 almost 7 years ago is affecting me in this way now. i dont think being seven months pregnant and not able to afford a babysitter for my 9 month old that i should be required to take this class! are there any alternatives for me being that it was so long ago? I am more than willing to take drug tests any time and do whatever it takes to be able to drive my child and myself to doctors appointments without being nervous i will be arrested for driving with a suspended licence?! HELP

Texas is retarded!!!! I paid all of my husbands tickets from 3 or more years ago and then they suspend his license. Really? So, I send him to the DPS office in Austin, where he is routed to a different office, and then again to another office, where they tell him that he needs to mail it in and it takes 21 days. Why are these people who sit behind a desk paid out of the tax dollars that I am required to hand over? I don't want to pay these mentally challenged freaks, half od which are probably convicts like the majority of the state and county employees. I'm tired of this facist, third world state and the morons who run it.

if my cdl was suspended in texas for one year.can i downgrade(SO TO SPEAK) to a regular license.

Trying to help a friend who has had his CDL license suspended for "points". Is his regular license still good? I have a CDL also and had heard that the two are married and if you loose one you loose both privileges. I want to give sound advice to friend so please clear this up for me.

Thanks.

It has been determined that you operated a motor vehicle on a highway while your license or driving privledge was suspended...Who determines this?

I am trying to help my brother who has a suspended license. He received an Order of Suspension last April that said the suspension would be 01/27/2010 through 07/25/10. He then received ( in July 2010) a notice of revocation for not responding to the demand of the Department and the Medical Advisory Board regarding medical testing they wanted him to undergo. What are the steps to finding out what needs to be done to get his license back?

i was involved in a traffic accident which was my fault. didnt have ins. got sued (default judgement) im unemployed so i cant make an agrrement to pay. insurance company says they are going to suspend my license if i dont agree to pay now. can they suspend my license for a civil matter as opposed to a criminal one. ticket was dismissed.

I just need to know if my license is suspended and the relevant dates. Is there anywhere I can get this information for free??

i need to know if they have recieved my reinstatement fee for my tx DL but know one seems to be answering phone calls all day who can i get a hold of best.

After paying the surcharge,what do you do next to get your license back?how do i know how much i owe in reenstatement fee?thank you for any help.

If you got a DWI in Texas, and your license was suspended for that; and subsequently you got a valid drivers license in another state (CA), can you drive in Texas on your valid out-of-state license?

Hi, i just found out that my licence is suspended, i got an sr-22 from my insurance and i plan to mail it to the office, but it will take time for it to process and show up, so my licence is suspended in the meantime, i have to attend class, so is it cool if i drive with proof of my SR22 and proof that i mailed the info with money?

can you be charged more than 1 reinstatement fee in texas. I have tried to look up the laws and can't find anything on this matter. I was told that I have 3 reinstatement fees to pay before I can get my license back. I thought you can't get your license suspended if they are already suspended.

I have a revoked license from the state of CO. I am now working in Houston. I have been living here since 12/2010. A co-worker told me that I could get a motorcycle license in TX. Can anyone help me with the answer to this.

Does anyone know the address I need to mail my $125.00 reinstatment fee along with a copy of my SR22 form - Im in Dallas - The DPS website has all kinds of fee info but they dont tell you where to send in the payment - and calling their help in at 512-424-2600 is a waste of time - FRUSTRATED!!! - HELP.....thanks in advance.. Nate

clearly texas wants you to drive a horse to work everyday...i paid 1700 dollars in surcharges for fines that i already paid..thats double punishment...cant do that by law people...

then over a hundred dollars to reinstate license...followed by 25 dollars to get new license...what is this? you want my first born too?

this state is so garbage..last in healthcare, education, first at having most people going hungry..republicanism at its best.

Is driving with a suspended License considered a moving violation or a traffic ticket??? I wanted to no because I am filling out job applications and they ask whether you have been convicted of a misdemeanor other than a traffic violation.

I moved from Texas to Ohio in 2006, I had unpaid speeding tickets and surcharge fees that turned to warrants. I tried to get an Ohio license but couldnt because Texas put a block on it, after paying off all tickets, surcharge fees and warrants the block was removed and I was able to get my Ohio DL. I went to renew my ohio license yesterday (3-24-11) and was told that Texas had put a suspension and another block on my Ohio DL 5 years after the fact for too many points.

my question is.. How can Texas put a block on renewing my DL in another state, 5 years after the fact. I feel this should of been brought up 5 years ago.

I have been driving in Ohio for four years and now I can't renew my Ohio DL untill I pay a reinstatement fee to a state that I havent had a DL in for 5 years.

I feel they are doing some Dirty !@#$

Well it appears that the state is doing some really low down stuff. I also had my license suspended from a nonpayment of a ticket that I have no clue about. I went and renewed my licence at the local dps however I recieved a letter from Austin stating that I had unpaid tickets in Dallas county - instead of mailing me my license.

So after giving up on contacting the presinct where the alleged offenses occured (failure to show license and insurance) I have retained an attorney. Not a huge deal I went back in my records all the way to 2006 which was the citation dates - and I have proof of insurance surely texas knows that my license was valid or has some record thereof?

So I am advised by my attorney that the omniholds have been lifted and I should recive my license in the mail from Austin and I can drive w/ my letter from their lawoffice that they are representing me and have paid the omniholds.

So I purchased a new car today and went down to put some insurance on it however the insurance agent informed me that my license is suspended? Man I don't even know what to do from this point this is absolutely ridiculous and now I am most definitely going to lose my job over this - I guess I will be joining the many others on welfare if I qualify. Good job texas.

I found out my license was suspended was told to get in contact with the judges that were in the county that i was issued the tickets that i didnt pay. So now I'm having to find out where all of my tickets that I got and I'm not sure how to find out where all of my tickets are from. of course i lost the tickets so i dont know where a few are. my driver record only brought up a few of my whole past history of tickets. and 1 wasnt on there that i remember getting. If anyone knows where i can go to find out where all of my tickets are from so I can pay them ASAP it would be much appreciated. I keep getting told to go to certain places then they give me a number in which they said to get into contact with another number and then it says call the county where the ticket was issued.. so just alot of circles are getting me now where. please help me thanks!

I received a suspension of my license. I received two tickets for driving without insurance in October, 1998. The court has record me returning to show proof of insurance. I paid the fines for my tickets and was not informed that I was on probation for six months. In court, I received on instructions as to what i was required to dobut show proof of insurance and pay the fines. IN 2010 I was stopped for speeding and was informed there was a warrant for my arrest for not paying my tickets in 1998. As soon as I had the money, I paid my tickets. I went to renew my license and was informed that I could not because my license had been suspended. I have been able to renew my license every five years from 1998 until 2006. My license expired on November 13, 2010 and this is when I found out about the suspension. In mailed in a money order for $100.00 to the state of Texas and received a letter stating that I need an SR-22 in order to get my license.

I have had insurnace since 1998 unto present. How do I get an SR-22 form. Samuel Parker, Spring, Texas.
