CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas — In the wake of all the closures and shutdowns across the country due to the coronavirus, the state of Texas is granting a temporary extension for driver licenses.
Because of Governor Abbott's declaration of a state of disaster, the Department of Public Safety is now extending expiration dates for those whose driver's license is coming close to expiring.
That means a license with an expiration date of March 13th or later-- will remain valid until the state of disaster is lifted.
According to DPS officials, this extension includes CDL's.
