Texas drivers got a major change today – no safety inspections needed for normal cars anymore, just pay $7.50 at registration. This started January 1, 2026, to save time and money while funding roads. Emissions tests still required in 17 big counties like Harris and Dallas. Electric cars are exempt – safer, simpler driving ahead!
