A little goes a long way

Drive like a Texan is all about saving lives. It's a reminder for everyone in Texas to treat each other with a little bit of the kindness, respect, and neighborly spirit we’re famous for, especially on the road. By showing courtesy and care behind the wheel the same way we would in person, we can make our roads safer for all.

Kind

It's that simple. Treat others the way you want to be treated. Say thanks by giving a small wave, or just a friendly nod.
Courteous

Courtesy isn’t just about being polite in person. Show respect by letting others merge, giving plenty of space, and practicing patience on the road. Small actions save lives.
Safe

The most important part of any journey is arriving safely. Not only do you keep yourself safe, but you also help protect every driver, passenger, biker, and pedestrian sharing the road.

Leading by example

Drive like a Texan is about embracing what makes our state great — the way we look out for each other. On the road, this means driving with care, patience, and respect for everyone around us. Watch how the Mata sisters drive with Texas pride.
