If you are between the ages of 18 and 24 in the State of Texas, the law now requires that potential drivers complete a 6-hour adult driver education course to be eligible to get your first driver license.<\/p>\nIf you are between the ages of 18 and 24 in the State of Texas, the law now requires that potential drivers complete a 6-hour adult driver education course to be eligible to get your first driver license.<\/p>\n
Although it makes things a bit more difficult for new adult drivers to get a license,\u00a0they have options on how to take the course.\u00a0 Most of the commercial driving schools across the state of Texas are approved to offer classroom based courses.\u00a0 However, there is another option, which is online.<\/p>\n
Over the past few months, the Texas\u00a0Education Agency has approved multiple online adult driver education courses.\u00a0\u00a0Although there are benefits and drawbacks to both approaches to taking the course, many people find that online is the most flexible and convenient way to complete an adult driver education course today.<\/p>\n
Sign up for Texas Adult Driver Ed Course<\/a><\/p>\n Some Texas residents that must take this course live in remote areas that may not have a classroom course, and\u00a0 may only conduct a class once every 2-4 weeks.\u00a0 Why drive a long distance or wait for a class to fit a busy schedule?\u00a0 The online courses are\u00a0available 24 \/ 7 from any computer with Internet access.<\/p>\n Users can log in and out of the course as many times as\u00a0they like.\u00a0 The course consists of nine units and\u00a0users will be required to pass a short quiz following each chapter.\u00a0 At the end there is a final exam to test the total course comprehension of the user (70% or greater to pass, with three attempts allowed).<\/p>\n Having to take a final exam may seem cumbersome, but\u00a0it is important to note\u00a0that the adult driver ed course exam qualifies as a written driver license exam — the same exam that\u00a0new drivers\u00a0would otherwise have to take in person at the DMV office when applying for their license.\u00a0 That is one less thing\u00a0that has to be done at the\u00a0local Department of Motor Vehicles Driver License Office.<\/p>\n Once the course has been completed,\u00a0a certificate of completion is mailed out to the user.\u00a0 This must be\u00a0presented to the\u00a0DMV office to show that the new adult driver education course requirement has been met.\u00a0 Since the written driving test will have already been completed, the only remaining items are a vision test and a behind the wheel exam.<\/p>\n For those people who feel that the classroom option is the best for them, we recommend that you visit the Texas Education Agency’s website<\/a> for a listing of the approved adult driver education schools.<\/p>\n Sign up for Texas Adult Driver Ed Course<\/a><\/p>\n Driver Training Associates, Inc.
