Traffic Ticket convictions can cause “points” to be added to your driving record, which will require payment of surcharges.
POINTS SYSTEM
Texas DPS points remain on the driving record for three years from the date of conviction. For each moving violation conviction, the Texas DPS will assign points as follows:
- Two points for a moving violation conviction in Texas or another state;
- Three points for a moving violation conviction in Texas from a car accident;
- Two points for violation of child safety seat laws.
POINTS SURCHARGES
- Texas DPS reviews the driving record each year and if the driving record reflects six or more points during the prior 3 year period, a surcharge will be assessed.
Drivers may be required to pay for one or more years if six or more points continue to stay on the driver record. The driver is required to pay a $100 surcharge for the first 6 points and $25 for each additional point. Surcharges may vary with each annual assessment if convictions are added or removed from the driving record.
Drivers will be notified by mail to the address on record [make sure your address is updated on your driver’s license] with the Texas DPS of a surcharge is assessed. To make payments on surcharges, you can contact (800-688-6882). Driver’s licenses will be suspended for failure to pay the surcharges and you may also have to pay other costs such as service and collection fees.
If you have questions about points or surcharges, call the Texas DPS Customer Service at (512) 424-2600.
