Why don't you pay the tickets then and get it off your record?

Depends, was a warrant issued for falure to pay them, Was that payment part of a probation ?
If there is no warrant, then yes you can get the ID, expect them to now know where you live to collect that fine.
I do agree, pay the silly fine and clear this up, if it is showing on your record, it can effect or hurt chances for jobs

Can truancy tickets turn into warrants?
Can get my state id?
And I thought l once you turn 18 your record is sealed or is that false

Not if you still owe money... a debt is a debt... particularly if owed to a government entity.

Pay it. I would think they would give you an ID, BUT you may have a suspension which means you might not be able to get a driver permit until it is taken care of. I know they do that in my state. Not sure about Texas.
