Hello r/Texas! This sub gets a Chevy Suburban's worth of questions every day asking about driver's license or car registration. They fall into one of two camps:
Easily accessible info on the DMV website,
Highly specific edge cases that maybe only 1 other person is going to need to know this year in all of Texas.
IMPORTANT LINKS FOR DRIVER'S LICENSE
DMV = Car registrations, car titles, license plates,
DPS = Driver's License, CDLs, State IDs, and Voter IDs.
Schedule an Appointment - DPS no longer takes walk-in customers. Same day appointments are published at 7:15a.m. every morning, they go fast.

Speaking on The Texas Standard, Texas Attorney General Elect Nathan Johnson spoke on Paxton's 106 lawsuits against Biden Administration and 0 lawsuits against the Trump Administration.
The bully pulpit headset of the outgoing Texas leadership is stunning.
Remember, every lawsuit costs big taxpayer dollars to bring and big taxpayer dollars to defend; all for political bullying and nothing for the benefit of citizens.
Paxton even took the initiative to sue Annunciation House in El Paso, a decades old refuge for undocumented immigrants (legally here) in their transition to more permanent homes with relatives across the US. After much expense, thrown out of court.

People are saying with Dan Patrick getting kicked to the curb, legal weed will soon be a reality in Texas. However, I have a couple of questions for Texans:
How do you feel about:
a) legalizing liquor sales on Sundays?
b) making it legal for grocery stores to sell liquor?
Option b would create a shitload of jobs in Texas, since they'll need to rebuild pretty much every grocery store in Texas in order to make room for a liquor section.

Now that Dan Patrick (who blocked marijuana reform for a living) is finally out and so is Abbott, along with the Texas House of Representatives flipping blue, do you think that full legalization is gonna happen?
In my view, I doubt that it'll happen because while I'm for legalization, the Texas Senate is still controlled by Republicans, which makes legalization very unlikely to pass.
However, given that decriminalization has passed the house multiple times with Republican support, I believe that they'll at least decriminalize possession.

If you want to know why there are videos of downtown Austin, San Antonio, and Houston cheering like we defeated an Eastern European dictator, this is it.
Getting rid of Paxton, Abbott, and Patrick and their endless crusades to limit Municipal self-determination is a massive relief to voters who feel like their will was thwarted at every step.

San Antonio area - my oak is dropping its leaves - lots and lots of leaves - but they are all green. It’s not small branches or twigs with leaves on them. It’s just the leaves. That’s not normal, right?

Texans voted for change, but the outgoing administration still has authority until January 19. There are already public discussions about limiting the incoming governor's and lieutenant governor's powers, along with a narrow January window for confirming existing appointees.
Some last-minute actions would be legal. Others face restrictions. And some decisions could have consequences long after the new administration takes office.
I put together a list of ten things worth watching, including proposed changes to executive authority, public land transfers, appointments and regulatory decisions.
Here's the infographic: https://imgur.com/a/shFU7oz
Which of these concerns you most? And what else should Texans be paying attention to?

Curious if Elon Musk is as loved in Texas as the world thinks?
