Proof of insurance will be enforced through the new Texas law SB 1670. This law demands the Dept. of Insurance, in conjunction with Texas Dept. of Transportation and other agencies, to constitute a substantiation program for automobile insurance in order to try and scale down the number of uninsured motor vehicle operators.


SB 1257 disallows use of wireless communications gear (including cell telephones) for the first six months after adolescents get their driver licenses. The bill also prohibits passenger bus automobile operators transferring minors from using wireless communications devices, except in emergencies or when the vehicle is stopped.
