TexasSure, the vehicle insurance verification program, came about when the Texas Legislature directed the Texas Departments of Insurance, Public Safety, Motor Vehicles, and Information Resources to develop a system to reduce the number of uninsured motorists. Working together, the agencies have compiled a database that connects every registered vehicle in the state by its license plate, vehicle identification number (VIN), and liability insurance policy. That means that law enforcement officers and tax assessor-collectors can immediately access the database and verify if you are driving without insurance.
In Texas, 20% of the vehicles on our roads have no insurance coverage. That's 1 in every 5 cars and trucks. Law-abiding Texans are paying an estimated $1 billion annually in optional insurance coverage to protect themselves against uninsured and underinsured motorists.
Got insurance? Great, you're good to go and there's nothing else you need to do.
Driving without insurance? The TexasSure program will put an end to the days of uninsured motorists, drivers dropping coverage after receiving a valid insurance card, and fraudulent insurance cards. So, get insured!
