How to report something wrong on this site, how quickly we respond, what we do about it, and how substantive corrections are recorded.
The short answer
Email [Corrections Email] with the page address and the passage in question. We acknowledge within [Acknowledgement Period] and resolve within [Resolution Period]. Substantive corrections are noted on the page with the date.
In this guide
What to report
A rule stated incorrectly, out of date, or attributed to the wrong code section.
Any number that does not reconcile with the statute, TxDOT or the federal dataset it is cited to.
Particularly links to statutes and agency pages, which move.
If a passage reads like advice about a specific situation rather than general information, that is a defect and we want to know.
If a page implies we are a law firm, an official body, or that we evaluate claims, tell us.
How to report it
Email [Corrections Email] with the page address, the passage in question, and what you believe the correct position is. A link to a primary source helps and speeds things up considerably.
For anything that is not a correction, contact [Editorial Email].

How corrections are recorded
Anything changing the meaning of a legal rule, a deadline, a dollar figure or a citation is noted on the page with the date and a short description of what changed.
Typography, formatting and broken links are fixed without a note.
The last-reviewed date on every page reflects the most recent substantive change, not a cosmetic edit.
Every page carries a next scheduled review date, so pages are re-checked even when nobody reports anything.
Why this matters
This site states legal deadlines and dollar thresholds that people may act on, which makes accuracy a safety issue rather than a style preference.
A concrete example: the CR-2 driver’s crash report was eliminated effective 1 September 2017, and TxDOT destroyed the retained records in 2019. Sites across the internet still instruct Texas drivers to file one. That is what an unmaintained page looks like years later, and it is the risk a correction process exists to manage.
Former Tex. Transp. Code § 550.061, repealed 2017.
Common questions
Email [Corrections Email] with the page address, the passage, and ideally a link to the primary source you believe is correct.
Yes. You get an acknowledgement, and then either a correction or an explanation of why we think the page is right as written.
Substantive corrections are noted on the affected page itself with the date and what changed, which is where a reader of that page will actually see it.
Say so and point us at the source. If the primary source supports you, the page changes.

Next steps
Read the Texas rules that apply, or see how a request for attorney review works. General information only, not legal advice.
Texas-specific information on crash deadlines, fault rules and insurance, with the statute cited on every page. Operated by National Claim Network. Not a law firm, insurer, or government agency.
This is attorney advertising. National Claim Network is a marketing and lead generation service that connects individuals with licensed attorneys. It is not a law firm, an insurance company, or a government agency, is not affiliated with or endorsed by the State of Texas, TxDOT, the Texas Department of Insurance or the State Bar of Texas, and it does not provide legal advice or legal representation. Nothing on this site creates an attorney-client relationship. Deadlines to file a legal claim vary by state and case type — in Texas the general personal-injury deadline is two years — do not delay in seeking legal advice.
No guarantee, warranty, or prediction of outcome is made. Past results do not guarantee similar results. If representation is offered on a contingency basis, clients may still be responsible for certain costs or expenses as required by the retaining law firm.
Dramatized scenes, symbols, figures, or testimonials are illustrative, not based on actual events, and may feature paid actors or spokespersons. Recoveries vary. “No fee” describes attorney fees; costs may apply. Phrases such as “best” are slogans, not rankings or awards.
Paid independent attorney advertising. National Claim Network connects users with licensed, independently practicing attorneys and law firms who may pay a fee to receive inquiries submitted through this site.
