Walker County, Texas

The Driver Responsibility Program has been repealed. Effective September 1, 2019, all DRP surcharge suspensions have been lifted.

On September 1, 2019 all surcharges assessments were waived and no future surcharges will be assessed after. You will still be responsible for any other suspensions, fines or fees on your driving record.

This repeal only applies to surcharges and you are still responsible for all other obligations including non-surcharge related suspensions, fines and fees. Drivers can check the status of their driving privilege or pay reinstatement fees by visiting https://txapps.texas.gov/txapp/txdps/dleligibility/login.do to check the status, drivers will need their driver license or ID number, date of birth, and the last four digits of their social security number. Records are updated daily.

Under the Failure to Appear/Failure to Pay Program, the Department may deny the renewal of a driver license if you have failed to appear for a citation or failed to satisfy a judgment ordering the payment of a fine. Your driver license may be denied renewal until the reported citations or violations are cleared and reported by the court(s) to the Department. For more information visit their website at Failure To Appear Link.

It takes three to five business days to update a driver record from the date the information is reported to the Department by the court. All court-reported offenses must be cleared before a driver record will reflect that you are in compliance. You are eligible to drive again or renew your driver license once you are in compliance.
