Driver education, often called driver ed, is a structured program designed to teach individuals the essential knowledge and skills needed to become safe and responsible drivers. In Texas, adult drivers education courses focus on traffic laws, road safety, and defensive driving techniques. These courses are particularly useful for first-time drivers or those needing a refresher on Texas driving regulations. For adults aged 18–24, completing a Texas adult drivers ed course is mandatory, while it is optional but highly recommended for those 25 and older.

Hitting the curb during your driving test is not always an automatic fail, but it can count as a significant deduction depending on the severity and context. If hitting the curb demonstrates a lack of control or poses a safety risk, it could result in failing the test. Practicing maneuvers like parallel parking can help you avoid this common mistake.
The cost of the Texas permit test, officially called the DPS written test, is included in the $33 fee when you apply for your driver’s license at the DPS. This fee covers the cost of both the written knowledge test and the road test, as long as you take them at a DPS office.
No, the Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) does not administer drug tests as part of the permit application process. Applicants are required to pass a vision test and, if applicable, a written knowledge test or a driving test, depending on their age and education course completion.
If your restricted license or learner’s permit expires, you must renew it at a DPS office. If it has been expired for more than two years, you may be required to retake the written knowledge test, road test, and meet other eligibility requirements. To avoid delays, renew your permit before it expires.
To pass the Texas permit test, study the DPS handbook and take advantage of resources like our Texas permit practice test. These tools help familiarize you with traffic laws, road signs, and other essential topics. Practice regularly and focus on areas where you feel less confident. A well-prepared applicant is more likely to succeed.
No, the owner of the car does not have to be present during the driving test. However, the vehicle must meet all DPS safety standards and be insured. You’ll need proof of insurance and permission to use the vehicle for your road test. Some third-party testing facilities even offer rental vehicles for the test if needed.
