Do You Know the Laws for Operating Golf Carts and UTVs?

Golf carts and UTVs (also known as Side-by-Sides or SXS) are not toys. Texas law prohibits the operation of these vehicles by unlicensed minors.

☀️ With summer break here and kids out of school, parents are encouraged to secure the keys 🔑 to family golf carts and UTVs. Unlicensed minors should not be allowed to drive golf carts or other off-highway vehicles to visit friends, convenience stores, fast-food restaurants, coffee shops, or any other destinations.

⚠️ Violations can result in:
• Citations for operating without a driver’s license
• Citations for operating without insurance
• Citations for allowing an unlicensed driver to operate a motor vehicle
• Citations for operating an unregistered vehicle or without the appropriate license plate
• Vehicle impoundment

Before operating a golf cart or off-highway vehicle on public roadways, make sure you understand the applicable laws and requirements.

Help keep our streets and community safe this summer!

Key Safety Measures for Icy Roads

Stay Home: If travel is not essential, avoid driving to allow crews to clear roads.
Slow Down & Increase Distance: Speed limits are for ideal
conditions; on ice, reduce speed significantly and maintain at least three times the normal following distance.

Bridge & Overpass Warning: Bridges, overpasses, and shaded areas freeze first and are the most dangerous spots.

Handling Skids: If your vehicle slides, ease off the gas or brakes and steer in the direction of the skid.

Visibility & Vehicle Control: Use headlights, avoid cruise control, and gently accelerate/decelerate.

Emergency Supplies: Pack a blanket, water, flashlight, and phone charger in your car.

Pedestrian Safety: Watch for ice on sidewalks and walkways, as black ice can be invisible.

Thank you Justin and Aiden with Kemp Public Works. While working today in the ice, they noticed smoke coming from a barn off Elm Street. Both stopped and attempted to put it out but had to notify Kemp Fire Department because it had gotten too large. Due to their quick actions a much more dangerous situation was averted.

Honoring Officer Jacob Candanoza
End of Watch: December 8, 2024

Today, we pause to honor and remember Officer Jacob Candanoza.

Officer Candanoza served the Terrell community with dedication, courage, and compassion. Beyond his badge, he was a devoted husband, a loving father, and a dedicated servant to the people he protected each day. His kindness, steady presence, and unwavering commitment to others continue to leave a lasting impact on our department and our city.

We remain grateful for the time we had with him and for the example he set as an officer, colleague, and friend.

To his family, friends, and all who knew and loved him — you remain in our thoughts. We will never forget his service, his sacrifice or the legacy he left behind.

GREAT JOB Henderson County Sherriffs Office! Recently a Facebook post was made about arrests in Henderson County. Just to clarify the post stated the arrests were in the city of Kemp at the 1300 block of Pritchett Lane. Although that area is commonly confused, it is actually in Henderson County in the city of Seven Points. The city of Kemp lies solely in Kaufman County but does have a 75143 zip code. That shows many areas incorrectly as the city of Kemp. We have recently been assisting Gun Barrell Police in Seven Points, but only as needed for back up on calls for service. Again, Great Job to Henderson County Sherriffs Office! 👍🏻👏🏻💯
