What are the requirements for obtaining a learner's permit?
To obtain a learner's permit in Texas, you must meet certain requirements. Firstly, you must be at least 15 years old and enrolled in an approved driver education course. This course can be taken at a public school or through an online provider. Additionally, you must pass a written knowledge test, which covers various traffic laws, road signs, and safe driving practices. If you pass the test, you will receive a learner's permit, allowing you to practice driving with a licensed adult who is at least 21 years old. It is crucial to complete at least 30 hours of classroom instruction and 7 hours of behind-the-wheel training during your driver education course. Finally, ensure you have the necessary documents, such as proof of identity, Social Security card, and proof of Texas residency.
