Texas Driver’s License Rules
The process for obtaining a driver’s license in Texas varies by age. Adults (18+) must provide documentation, pass knowledge and driving tests, and undergo a vision screening. For teens, the Graduated Driver Licensing (GDL) program starts with a learner’s permit at age 15, progresses to a restricted provisional license at 16, and culminates in a full, unrestricted license at 18.
The GDL program has specific requirements and restrictions. To get a provisional license, a teen must hold a learner’s permit for six months and complete driver education. This provisional license prohibits driving between midnight and 5:00 a.m., restricts passengers under 21, and bans wireless device use for the first year.
