Texas Driving Laws You Didn't Know | Dallas News
Description
Texas driving laws you didn’t know could cost you: rolling through a yellow light is legal if you clear the intersection, but speeding or distracted driving still gets you fined. Running a red light? That’s a misdemeanor with steep fines and higher insurance. Pets in cars? No state ban, but blocking your view or riding on your lap = reckless driving ticket. Keep them secured — no head out the window! Police can legally ask you to step out during a stop — refusing may lead to charges. Refusing to sign a ticket? You could end up jailed until court. And if your car’s towed, it’s free if not fully hooked up; otherwise, pay a drop fee — but you’ve got 14 days to contest it. Stay safe and stay smart on the road.
