Driver's License Test Prep
Texas Practice Insurance & Financial Responsibility

The manual lists an unsatisfied crash judgment as grounds to suspend a driver's license and registration after how many days?

  1. A.
    60 days Correct
  2. B.
    10 days
  3. C.
    30 days
  4. D.
    180 days
The Why

The answer is "60 days"

A crash judgment left unpaid triggers a license, registration, and driving-privilege suspension after 60 days. The 10-day pick is the deadline for filing a written crash report with TxDOT from Chapter 11, borrowed here for a completely different deadline.

Why the others miss

The traps in the wrong answers

B. 10 days

The deadline for filing a written crash report with TxDOT, not for satisfying a judgment. This answer confuses the 10-day crash-report filing deadline from Chapter 11 with the judgment-satisfaction deadline.

C. 30 days

A shorter window the manual does not list for judgment satisfaction. This answer applies a habitual month-long grace period rather than checking the printed deadline.

D. 180 days

The second-conviction impoundment period, not a judgment-satisfaction deadline. This answer reaches for the six-month figure listed elsewhere on the same page for a different penalty.
