S.B. No. 523 amends the Transportation Code to allow certain law enforcement professionals, specifically parole officers, peace officers, probation officers, and prosecutors, to obtain a driver's license that includes an alternative to their residence address. The bill defines these roles and clarifies that the alternative address can be the office address for parole and probation officers, as well as for prosecutors. Additionally, it specifies that peace officers can use an address within their municipality or county of residence or employment.

The bill also outlines the responsibilities of license holders regarding address changes, requiring them to notify the department within 30 days of any change in residence or office address, or name change. The new legal language includes definitions for "parole officer," "peace officer," "probation officer," and "prosecutor," and it modifies the existing provisions to accommodate these changes. The act is set to take effect on September 1, 2025.
