Question:
I just purchased a vehicle (cash) in Baton Rouge, LA and moved to Dallas, TX two days later, so I still have my temp. paper plate on the car. The dealership just mailed me the title to the new car but I'm not sure what needs to be done in order to get my registration. Do I need to get my TX license first, or can I get my tag first or does it even matter? I'd like feedback from individuals who live in texas and know what they're talking about. Thanks!

Another thing regarding your car that you need to understand is Texas’ requirement for you to carry liability insurance. Called 20/40/15, Texas law requires minimum coverage of $20,000 per injured person, up to $40,000 for everyone who is injured in an accident and $15,000 for personal property damage. Is this enough?
