We are considering a hosting job in a Texas State park this winter but in order to operate their vehicles they have strange insurance requirements. Anyone out there have experience hosting in a Texas State park? I would like to talk to you.

I hosted in one and could not drive vehicles because of insurance issues but could drive a mule and tractor. Didn't make any sense to me.

Dianne,
They did not accept your drivers license. What would you have had to do??

We hosted for years in CA state parks on a SD license and insurance. We stopped when the state told us our licenses and insurance were no longer any good .....grrrrrrr.

Make sure Texas has not followed CA' s lead......

If I NEVER return to CA, it will be too soon.....

We worked in a TX state park last winter...had to get a standard form from our car insurance with a specific block checked to show we were covered in order to drive a park vehicle. Only drove it in the park, speed limit 20 mph, short distances, no big deal. It beat driving my own vehicle and sometimes the park mules weren't available or practical.

We hosted inTwo different Texas State Parks. In order to operate a licensed vehicle, It had to be covered by my personal insurance: I declined to drive. But, that did not include the diesel mule for camp host, so we were just fine operating the mule.

Maybe you should ask a moderator to move your post to the workamping forum instead of making multiple posts asking the same question.
