I recently turned 18 and one of my friends told me there was a new law that just passed that allowed people 18 and older to carry unopend alcohol in their car. Is this fact or fiction. If this is true, I would like to know where I can look up laws to see if they exsist for future reference. Thank you for your time.

Matt, these forums are dedicated mostly to discussion of prosecution of criminal offenses. Most of the folks posting here are prohibited by ethical rules from giving you legal advice.

You can find Texas laws online at:

or at http://www.findlaw.com/

thank you
