Three Steps and You're Done

Create Your Account

Sign up with TrafficSchool.net, operated by OnlineTrafficEducation.com, a TDLR approved Texas driver education provider. Confirm your eligibility as a first-time Texas license applicant who is at least 18 years old. Morris County residents enroll the same way as anyone else in the state.

Work Through the Course

The course uses text and image based interactive lessons with quizzes between sections. Your progress saves automatically on the server after each section. Log out, come back later, and pick up exactly where you left off. No live video streaming, no scheduled sessions to attend.

Pass the Exam and Get Certified

After completing 6 hours of TDLR approved instruction, you take a 30-question final exam covering road signs and road rules. Score 70% or higher and you receive your ADE-1317 Certificate of Completion digitally. Bring that certificate to the Mount Pleasant DPS office when you apply for your license.

You Cannot Apply for a License Without This

Texas law under Section 84.503 of the Texas Administrative Code requires anyone between 18 and 24 to complete this course before applying for a first Texas driver license. Every day you wait is another day you are not licensed. The Mount Pleasant DPS Driver License Office is about 30 miles from Naples. Finish the course, get your certificate, and make that drive count by showing up ready for the driving skills test.

Questions About the Texas Adult Driver Education Course

Who is required to take this course in Texas?

Anyone between 18 and 24 applying for a first Texas driver license must complete this course before the DPS will process their application. That requirement comes directly from Section 84.503 of the Texas Administrative Code, Title 16, Chapter 84, which governs adult driver education enrollment in Texas. Adults 25 and older are not required to take it, but many do because completing the course lets them skip the in-person DPS written knowledge test. For Naples residents in Morris County, that means one less step to handle at the Mount Pleasant DPS Driver License Office before the driving skills test. Start your enrollment at TrafficSchool.net to confirm your eligibility.

How does the course final exam replace the DPS written knowledge test?

The 30-question final exam built into the Texas Adult Driver Education Course is accepted by Texas DPS as a substitute for the Class C written knowledge test you would otherwise take in person at the DPS office. Under current TDLR guidelines and Texas Administrative Code Title 16, Chapter 84, a TDLR approved course that includes a qualifying final exam satisfies the written knowledge requirement. That means when you show up at the Mount Pleasant DPS Driver License Office with your ADE-1317 certificate, you skip the written test counter entirely and move straight to scheduling your driving skills test. You still take the in-person driving skills test. The course does not replace that step.

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 6-hour minimum under Texas Administrative Code Title 16, Chapter 84. There is no daily hour cap on this course, so you can complete all of it in a single day if your schedule allows, or you can split it across multiple sessions over several days. Progress saves automatically on the server after each section, so logging out does not cost you anything. For someone in Naples working around a job or other obligations in Morris County, that kind of pacing makes finishing realistic without rearranging your whole week. Log back in whenever you have time and keep going.

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 under TDLR regulations when you pass the final exam in a TDLR approved Texas Adult Driver Education Course. It is the document that proves to Texas DPS you completed the required adult driver education. You bring it with you when you apply for your first Texas driver license at the DPS Driver License Office. For Naples residents in Morris County, that office is in Mount Pleasant, about 30 miles west on US-67. Current Texas DPS requirements list the ADE-1317 as a required document for first-time applicants in the 18 to 24 age group. Adults 25 and older bring it to skip the in-person written knowledge test. The certificate is delivered digitally after you pass.

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 the adult course governed by Section 84.503 of the Texas Administrative Code, Title 16, Chapter 84. The adult course is classroom instruction only, delivered here as text and image based interactive lessons. You complete the 6 hours of instruction, pass the final exam, and receive your ADE-1317 certificate. The in-person driving skills test at the DPS is still required and is separate from this course, but no supervised driving log is part of what you submit. Head to TrafficSchool.net and get the course portion handled first.

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

The practical reason is simple. Completing the Texas Adult Driver Education Course through a TDLR approved provider lets adults 25 and older skip the in-person written knowledge test at the DPS Driver License Office. Under current TDLR guidelines tied to Texas Administrative Code Title 16, Chapter 84, the course final exam substitutes for that test. For someone in Naples who has not held a Texas license before, driving 30 miles to Mount Pleasant on US-67 twice, once to test and once to apply, adds time and hassle. Finishing the course means you make that trip once, with your ADE-1317 certificate in hand, ready to schedule the driving skills test. The course costs less than a tank of gas for two round trips.
