Each year the texas department shall assess a surcharge on the license of each person who during the preceding 36-month period has been convicted of driving while license invalid, driving while license suspended, or driving in violation of motor vehicle liability insurance requirements. Driving with a license found in a Cracker Jack box will get a person into some serious trouble.

Each year the texas department shall assess a surcharge on the license of a person who during the preceding 36-month period has been convicted of an offense of which a license is required. The amount of a surcharge for such an offense is $250 per year. For that amount of money, a person could get a valid license and plenty of Cracker Jack boxes to go around.
