The Texas Department of Motor Vehicles (TxDMV) is a dynamic state agency dedicated to customer service, consumer protection and the success of motor vehicle-related industries.It is one of only a handful of state agencies that raises revenue for the state. For every $ 1 the agency spends, it returns more than $ 10 in state revenue. These funds are primarily used to build and maintain the state's roads and bridges.The Texas Department of Motor Vehicles is overseen by a nine member, governor-appointed board that is the agency's policy-making arm. Daily operations are overseen by the agency's executive director.Each year the agency registers almost 24 million vehicles; regulates vehicle dealers; credentials buses and big trucks for intrastate and interstate commerce; issues oversize and overweight permits; and awards grants to law enforcement agencies to reduce vehicle burglaries and thefts.The agency was created by the state legislature in 2009 and became operational on Nov. 1, 2009.Learn more at www.TxDMV.gov.
