Homeless and "proof of residency" WTF ?

You need to rent or own property to register a vehicle and or drive in the USA ?

That can't be right.

To verify Texas residency, an individual must present two documents from the drop down menu below. Both documents must contain the individual’s name and residential address. One of the documents must verify that the individual has lived in Texas for at least 30 days. This 30 day requirement is waived for individuals who are surrendering a valid, unexpired driver license from another state.

Individuals who are unable to provide two acceptable documents may be eligible to complete a Texas Residency Affidavit.

Homeless people are always getting accused of mental illness, its just a crock.

Who woulden't want to just drink or be depressed or "manic" when faced with this stupid crap.
