What are the published Texas requirements for points and repeat violations?

Texas repealed its Driver Responsibility surcharge program on September 1, 2019. All surcharges were forgiven and any suspensions tied to them were lifted. However, a habitual traffic violator suspension (triggered by 4 or more moving violations in 12 months) still applies. To reinstate from that suspension, complete a defensive driving course, clear any outstanding fines, and pay the $100 Departmental (DI) reinstatement fee.
