Drive On TEXpress Highlights

Save Money on Your Commute

HOV users, such as carpool drivers and motorcyclists, get a discount when using the tolled TEXpress Lanes and HOV/Express Lanes during specific time periods, which vary depending on the roadway. Drive On TEXpress enables drivers to receive and manage HOV discounts, as well as promotional offers. 

Qualifying for Discounts

To qualify for discounts, you’ll need:

• A valid TollTag, TxTag or EZ TAG mounted on your windshield
• To register for a FREE Drive On TEXpress account
• To activate your HOV status at least 15 minutes prior to using the TEXpress Lanes or HOV/Express Lanes
• A driver and at least one passenger

Creating an Account is Easy

To create an account, all you have to do is provide some basic contact info and the TollTag, TxTag or EZ TAG number associated with your license plate. Upon successful registration, you’ll receive a code or link to activate your account.

Activate Your HOV Status

To get your discount, you'll need to activate your HOV status for the next applicable HOV period, which varies depending on the roadway, at least 15 minutes before using the TEXpress Lanes or HOV/Express Lanes. You can also schedule your HOV status up to 7 days in advance.

Everyone Plays by the Same Rules

HOV usage is monitored by law enforcement officers with data for all HOV-activated vehicles. If you don’t have a passenger, cancel your prescheduled HOV status at least 10 minutes before entering the TEXpress Lanes or HOV/Express Lanes, otherwise you’ll be ticketed.

And TEXpress Benefits

Drive On TEXpress allows you to add up to 5 family vehicles per account, view your past activated discounts, and plan trips with the TEXpress mapping service (app feature only). Plus you’ll be eligible for special LBJ and NTE TEXpress Lanes discounts.
