Three Steps and You're Done

Enroll and Start

Create your account and begin the Texas Adult Driver Education Course. Lessons are text and image based with quizzes between sections. Your progress saves automatically after each section, so you can close the browser and pick back up without losing anything. No live video sessions to schedule around.

Work Through the Material

The course covers Texas road signs, traffic laws, and alcohol and drug content required under TDLR guidelines. Each section builds toward the final exam. The road signs module is the one most people underestimate. Read those sections carefully because the final pulls directly from that material.

Pass the Exam and Get Your Certificate

The final exam is 30 multiple-choice questions covering road signs and road rules. Score 70% or higher and you complete the 6 hours state-mandated requirement. Your digital ADE-1317 Certificate of Completion is issued immediately. Bring it to the DPS when you apply for your license.

Questions About the Course and Your Jasper County License

Who is required to take this course in Texas?

Under Texas Administrative Code Title 16 Chapter 84, Section 84.503, any first-time Texas driver license applicant between the ages of 18 and 24 must complete the Texas Adult Driver Education Course before DPS will process their application. That requirement applies to Jasper County residents the same as anywhere else in the state. Adults who are 25 or older are not required to complete the course, but they can take it voluntarily to skip the in-person written knowledge test at the DPS office. Both groups receive the same ADE-1317 Certificate of Completion on passing. Check current TDLR guidelines to confirm your eligibility before enrolling.

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

Yes. The final exam built into the Texas Adult Driver Education Course substitutes for the DPS Class C written knowledge test, as recognized under current Texas DPS requirements. The exam is 30 multiple-choice questions covering road signs and road rules. Pass it at the required score and you do not retake the written test in person at the Jasper County area DPS Driver License Office. The in-person driving skills test is a separate requirement and still happens at the DPS office regardless. Bring your ADE-1317 Certificate of Completion when you go to apply. The written test substitution does not eliminate the road test.

How long does the course take to finish?

The Texas Adult Driver Education Course requires 6 hours of TDLR approved instruction, which is the state-mandated minimum under Texas Administrative Code Title 16 Chapter 84. There is no daily hour cap, so you can work through the full 6 hours in one sitting or split it across several sessions over multiple days. Progress saves automatically after each section, so you never lose your place. For most Jasper County residents, finishing in one focused day is realistic. Others spread it across a few evenings. Either approach works. The course does not enforce timed breaks or lock you out after a set number of hours per day.

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

The ADE-1317 is the official Certificate of Completion issued by a TDLR approved Texas driver education provider when you finish the course and pass the final exam. It is the document Texas DPS requires when you apply for your first driver license. Under current Texas DPS requirements, you present this certificate at the DPS Driver License Office as part of your license application. The nearest DPS Driver License Office serving Jasper County residents is in Lufkin, roughly 60 miles northwest of Jasper on US-69. Your ADE-1317 is issued digitally after you pass. Print it or save it to your phone before heading to the DPS.

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

No. Adults taking the Texas Adult Driver Education Course are not required to log 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 six hours in this course are classroom instruction hours, completed through the online lessons and quizzes. Once you finish the course and receive your ADE-1317 certificate, you still need to pass the in-person driving skills test at the DPS office. That road test is a DPS requirement separate from this course, and no practice hour log is submitted for it.

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

The main reason is skipping the in-person written knowledge test at the DPS. Under current Texas DPS requirements, adults 25 and older who complete the Texas Adult Driver Education Course and pass the built-in final exam do not have to take the written test at the DPS Driver License Office. For Jasper County residents, that DPS office is in Lufkin, about 60 miles away on US-69. Making that drive twice, once to test and once to finish the license process, adds up. Finishing the written exam portion through this course means you go to Lufkin once, ready for the driving skills test. Section 84.503 of the Texas Administrative Code covers the optional enrollment provision for this age group.
