Common mistakes

  1. Incorrect Payment Method: Many individuals mistakenly send cash instead of a check or money order. Payments must be made payable to the Texas Department of Public Safety.

  2. Missing Required Information: Failing to provide all necessary personal details, such as the requestor's full name or Texas Driver License Number, can lead to delays or denials.

  3. Not Initialing Exceptions: If the requestor does not have written consent from the driver license holder, they may neglect to initial the applicable exceptions, which is essential for obtaining personal information.

  4. Illegible Handwriting: Writing that is difficult to read can cause processing issues. Clear and legible printing is crucial when filling out the form.

  5. Incorrect Signature: The requestor often forgets to sign the form or provides a signature that does not match the name on the application, which may result in rejection.

  6. Not Including Consent: If the requestor is not applying for their own record, they may fail to include the written consent of the driver license holder, which is mandatory for processing.

  7. Ignoring Delivery Time: Some individuals overlook the 2-3 week delivery time and expect immediate results, leading to frustration.

  8. Using Outdated Forms: Submitting an outdated version of the DR-1 form can lead to complications. Always ensure you are using the most current version available.

Key takeaways

  • Filling out the Texas DR-1 form requires attention to detail. Ensure that all personal information, including your name, address, and Texas Driver License Number, is accurate and clearly written.

  • Different types of driver records are available. You can request a basic record, a detailed report of accidents and violations, or a certified version, each with varying fees.

  • Fees range from $4.00 to $10.00 depending on the type of record requested. Make sure to include the correct payment method, such as a check or money order made out to the Texas Department of Public Safety.

  • Delivery time for the requested records is typically 2-3 weeks. Plan accordingly if you need the information by a specific date.

  • Written consent from the driver license holder is necessary if you are not requesting your own record. Without this consent, personal information will be excluded from the record.

  • Understand the legal implications of using the information obtained from the DR-1 form. Misuse can lead to serious penalties, including fines and potential criminal charges.

  • You can expedite the process by requesting your driver record online through the Texas Department of Public Safety's website, which may save time compared to mailing the form.
