Texas Driver's license

At least 98% of Texas driver's licenses are REAL ID compliant, but a low national rate could slow TSA screening.

Starting May 7, airport security will ask U.S. travelers for a Real ID.

Internal agency records show employees with the Department of Public Safety, which issues driver’s licenses, reported each time someone requested to update the sex listed on their state ID.

The outage appeared only to affect the public safety department. Websites for other state agencies were operational Monday evening.

A Texas advocacy group says a state policy that piles on fees for Texans who have traffic tickets or other minor offenses is robbing some people of their ability to renew their driver’s licenses.

Long wait times for drivers license appointments may have new Texans worried about getting ready to vote this year. But you can still register and cast a ballot while you’re waiting on yours.

LGBTQ rights advocates targeted the Department of Public Safety with dozens of messages after the agency announced a new policy that blocks transgender Texans from changing the sex listed on their driver's licenses.

Texans who have secured a court order to update the sex listed on their birth certificates can no longer do so at this time, according to a new state policy that blocks transgender Texans from making these changes.

Now, Texans will not be able to change the sex on their driver's licenses unless it is to fix a clerical error.
