Young Texas Drivers to Complete Class Before Licensure

A new law which went into effect March 1st requires drivers aged 18-24 to complete an approved driver education course. They must submit their certificate proving they successfully completed the course, which must be a course approved by the Texas Education Agency.

Successful completion of the course allows the license applicant to bypass the written highway signs and traffic laws test, but still must pass the driving skills exam.

Drivers aged 15 to 17 are not affected by this new law since they are still required to complete a driver's education class to be licensed.
