Enrolled Bill Summary

House Bill 1762 amends the Transportation Code to authorize the Department of Public Safety to allow the holder of a Texas driver's license or identification certificate to apply for the issuance of a duplicate license or certificate by mail, by telephone, over the Internet, or by other electronic means, and to allow a Texas driver's license holder to submit a request for certain information by mail, by telephone, over the Internet, or by other electronic means.

The bill also amends the Government Code to authorize the department to adopt rules regarding the method of payment of any fee or charge that the department imposes or collects.
