Three Steps and You're Done

Enroll and Start the Course

Create your account and begin the Texas Adult Driver Education Course through TrafficSchool.net, operated by OnlineTrafficEducation.com, a TDLR approved provider. The course uses text and image-based interactive lessons with quizzes between sections. Your progress saves automatically after each section so you never lose your place.

Work Through All Six Hours

The course covers Texas road signs, traffic laws, and alcohol and drug material required under Texas Administrative Code Title 16, Chapter 84. No live video streaming is involved. Log in and out as needed. Adults taking this course are not required to log any behind-the-wheel practice hours alongside the online instruction.

Pass the Exam, Get Your Certificate

The 30-question final exam covers road signs and road rules. You need a 70% to pass. Completing 6 hours of TDLR approved instruction and passing that exam earns your ADE-1317 Certificate of Completion. That certificate substitutes for the DPS Class C written knowledge test, so you skip it entirely at the Crowell area DPS office.

Every lesson meets TDLR standards for the Texas Adult Driver Education Course. The material covers exactly what Texas DPS expects you to know before your driving skills test.

Digital Certificate Delivery

In-Person Classroom

Traditional classroom driver education requires scheduled attendance at a physical location, which is not practical for most Foard County residents given local availability.

Fixed Class Schedule

Attendance tied to an instructor's calendar, not yours. Missing a session can set you back days.

Travel Required

No classroom driver education provider operates in Crowell. Travel adds time before you even start.

Same DPS Road Test

The in-person driving skills test at DPS is still required regardless of which instruction format you choose.

Questions About the Texas Adult Driver Education Course

Who is required to take this course in Texas, and who takes it by choice?

Texas law requires anyone between 18 and 24 applying for a first Texas driver license to complete the Texas Adult Driver Education Course before the DPS will process their application. That requirement comes from Texas Administrative Code Title 16, Chapter 84, specifically Section 84.503, which governs adult enrollment in driver education. Adults 25 and older are not required to take it, but completing the course lets them skip the in-person DPS Class C written knowledge test, which is a real time saver for anyone living in Foard County who already has to drive to the DPS office for the road test. Start the course at TrafficSchool.net to satisfy whichever situation applies to you.

Does passing the course final exam really mean I skip the written test at the DPS office?

Yes. The 30-question final exam built into the Texas Adult Driver Education Course substitutes for the DPS Class C written knowledge test under current Texas DPS requirements. Pass the final at the required score and you bring your ADE-1317 Certificate of Completion to the DPS office instead of sitting for a separate written test there. This is authorized under Texas Administrative Code Title 16, Chapter 84, which governs TDLR approved adult driver education. The in-person driving skills test at the DPS is still required and is a separate step. For Crowell residents, that means one fewer thing to complete when you finally make the drive to the Foard County area DPS office.

How long does the course take, and can I finish it in one day?

The Texas Adult Driver Education Course requires 6 hours of TDLR approved instruction, as mandated under Texas Administrative Code Title 16, Chapter 84. The course is self-paced with no daily hour cap, so finishing it in a single day is possible if your schedule allows. Spreading it across multiple sessions works just as well since your progress saves automatically after each section. There are no enforced timers or mandatory breaks built into the course. Adults in Foard County with unpredictable schedules tend to appreciate that flexibility. Log in when you have time, log out when you do not, and the course holds your place. Enroll at TrafficSchool.net and work through it at whatever pace fits your week.

What is the ADE-1317 certificate and what do I do with it at the DPS?

The ADE-1317 is the official Certificate of Completion issued by a TDLR approved provider after you finish the Texas Adult Driver Education Course and pass the final exam. It is the document the Texas DPS requires when you apply for your first driver license. Under current Texas DPS requirements aligned with Texas Administrative Code Title 16, Chapter 84, you present the ADE-1317 at the DPS Driver License Office as proof you completed the state-mandated adult driver education requirement. For Crowell residents, the nearest DPS Driver License Office handling road tests is approximately 60 miles away, so arriving with your ADE-1317 already in hand means your visit is focused entirely on the driving skills test, nothing else.

Do adults have to log behind-the-wheel practice hours alongside this course?

No. Adults taking the Texas Adult Driver Education Course are not required to log any behind-the-wheel practice hours as part of this course. That requirement applies to the teen driver education program, not to the adult course governed by Texas Administrative Code Title 16, Chapter 84, Section 84.503. The 6-hour online instruction and the passing score on the final exam are what satisfy the adult requirement. The DPS driving skills test is still required and is a separate step you schedule directly with the DPS after you have your ADE-1317 certificate. Crowell residents should contact the nearest DPS Driver License Office to schedule that road test appointment once the course is complete and the certificate is in hand.

Why would someone 25 or older take this course if it is not required?

The main reason is skipping the DPS written knowledge test. Under Texas Administrative Code Title 16, Chapter 84, and as confirmed by current TDLR guidelines, adults 25 and older who complete the Texas Adult Driver Education Course and pass the built-in final exam receive an ADE-1317 Certificate of Completion that substitutes for the in-person DPS Class C written knowledge test. For someone in Crowell who has to drive roughly 60 miles to reach the nearest DPS Driver License Office, eliminating one required step at that office is worth the course fee. The driving skills test is still required, but showing up needing only the road test makes the whole trip more efficient. Enroll through TrafficSchool.net to get that certificate before your DPS appointment.
