Hemphill County Texas Defensive Driving

Hemphill County is one of the northernmost counties in Texas. It is so far north in Texas you might think you are in Canada. As a matter of fact, the only incorporated community in Hemphill county is called Canadian, which is the County seat.

One interesting thing about Hemphill county is it is a Dry County. Dry counties forbid the sale of alcoholic beverages within that county. There are only five remaining dry counties in Texas and Hemphill is one of the ones that is left. The other 4 counties are Borden (they only allow milk in this county), Kent, Roberts, and Throckmorton.

If you live in Hemphill County and find yourself driving to another county, to pick up an alcoholic beverage, be careful while driving. If you happen to open the alcoholic beverage while driving you could receive an open container ticket. If you are driving while impaired by alcohol you will most likely receive a DWI. Purchasing alcohol from another county and not opening the container is ok it, but speeding or breaking any traffic laws could make you receive a traffic citation.

Traffic citations can be handled as easily as taking a driving safety class in Texas and many of those classes are offered online at places like comedydriving.com.
