Speeding

What kind of fines and fees are paid when caught driving without a license in Texas?

My 15 year old son took my car for a ride of joy without my permission. He was in the car and received two tickets. One for driving without a license and the speed of other hazards. We live in Texas and I wanted to know if this will cause not get your license at age 16? And so the fines and fees to get paid. He hit a tree and no other vehicles were involved.

Hello! I am a criminal defense attorney and handle inputs like this very often. These crimes do not have a license suspension, but the driving without a license carries a surcharge of $ 100 per year for 3 years if found guilty, and the non-payment of charges will result in a suspension. You will want to ensure you get deferred adjudication. in order to avoid the hassle. Each Class C misdemeanor carries court costs of about $ 100 plus a fine set by the court from $ 10 to 500. So that, at least, you'll pay about $ 250, but could be up to $ 1200. That will depend on the court. Best, Alison Grinter
