Certain documents should be in the vehicle with you when you are out and about on the roads in Western Texas.

At West Texas Insurance Agency in Amarillo, TX, we are independent insurance agents who put our customers first. <\/p>\n

Vehicle registration<\/strong><\/h2>\n

When you purchase a new or used vehicle, you will need to register it with the state. This proves your ownership. You must produce the title to register it for the first time. If you are pulled over, you must be able to produce the registration, including your vehicle’s VIN number. <\/p>\n

Insurance card<\/strong><\/h2>\n

When you purchase auto insurance, the insurance company will send you a card identifying you and your vehicle. This will also be required if the police pull you over for a violation or if you have an accident. <\/p>\n

Driver’s license<\/strong><\/h2>\n

You always need to have your driver’s license with you when driving. Most people keep their driver’s license on their person in a wallet or their purse. It is an accepted form of identification that most people use regularly. <\/p>\n

Vehicle maintenance record<\/strong><\/h2>\n

When you change the oil in your vehicle or do other repairs, the paperwork should be kept in your glove box. If you buy new tires and then have an issue with one of the tires, the paperwork can prove that a warranty still covers you. It is a good idea to have any proof of roadside assistance you may have in your vehicle. <\/p>\n
