(KNUE-FM) There is not one person in Texas who wants to break the law by having an illegal violation with their vehicle, especially if it’s something that catches the eye of law enforcement.

We all use and abuse our vehicles daily; they are a necessity to get back and forth to work and all the other places we need to go.

There are things that are going to fail on our vehicle overtime, but which ones are technically illegal in Texas?

While vehicle issues can be a major annoyance to us as the vehicle owner, it really boils down to safety.

No law enforcement officers wake up just hoping to catch someone for a safety violation so they can write a ticket.

That seems very petty, and our law enforcement officers have more important things to do, although they do need to bring these safety issues to our attention.

So, if you get pulled over, remember to be nice, it’s your best chance to avoid getting a ticket.
