What are the only two offenses that are not sufficient grounds for arrest in Texas?

In Texas, there are specific offenses categorized as not sufficient grounds for arrest, which include minor violations that do not typically pose significant threats to public safety. The correct answer refers to speeding and having an open container in a vehicle. Both of these offenses are often treated as citations rather than criminal arrests.

Speeding is generally subject to a traffic ticket and does not warrant arrest unless it is linked to more severe violations or circumstances, such as reckless driving. Similarly, possessing an open container of alcohol in a vehicle is an infraction that can result in fines but usually does not lead to arrest, especially if the driver is not impaired or involved in an accident.

The other options list offenses that can generally lead to arrest under various circumstances. For example, public intoxication can lead to arrest if the individual poses a danger to themselves or others. Disturbing the peace can result in arrest if it disrupts public order, and minor in possession laws can lead to arrest depending on the context of the situation. Therefore, speeding and open container violations stand out as the only situations where arrest is not considered appropriate.
