Taxi license requirements vary with each town and city. Check with your municipal government. Usually a city or town clerk handles the licensing. But in some districts, local police departments oversee the processing.

Top Chauffeur

There is no statewide chauffeur license code to follow. Like taxis, chauffeur driver licenses vary with each district. Some may not require a special license,whereas other districts, such as Houston, mandate strict requirements. Check with your local government.

Top Sport Vehicles

• Operators under 14 must be supervised by a parent or guardian.

• When riding on public land, you must carry an ATV safety course certificate. Younger riders can scoot this requirement if they are riding with a parent who owns a safety certificate.

You're allowed to operate these vehicles on roads with posted speed limits of 45 mph or less. You do need a driver's license, but no motorcycle endorsement is required. Helmets are your choice.
