What action should you take if you fail to receive the renewal notice card reminding your license is about to expire?

If you fail to receive the renewal notice card reminding you that your license is about to expire, sending in an application for renewal is the appropriate action to take. The Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) does send out reminders, but not receiving one does not exempt you from the responsibility of ensuring your license remains valid. Therefore, proactively submitting a renewal application ensures that you do not accidentally allow your license to expire, which could lead to legal complications, fines, or the need to undergo the testing process again to obtain a new license. It's important to keep your driving privileges up to date, and submitting your renewal application on time is a responsible way to manage your licensing needs.
