In early 2008, Texas will launch its automated insurance verification
program.
The program is aimed at reducing the number of uninsured drivers and cutting
costs for responsible Texans, who now pay almost $900 million a year to protect
themselves against those with no coverage. Currently, 15-20 percent of Texas
drivers are uninsured.
The automated database, a joint project of Texas’ departments of transportation,
insurance, public safety and information resources, will quickly identify
vehicle owners without mandatory insurance coverage.
More information about insurance verification (Financial Responsibility
Verification Program) is available from the
Texas
Department of Insurance.
If you recently received a letter or notification from your insurance company
about this program and your vehicle record, please see our
steps to take.
