Permit and test-day planning · driver guide

Should I arrange the permit, test truck or DPS appointment first?

Choose the vehicle goal, then work through the applicable permit and ELDT steps. Check your test-site confirmation before paying for a rental. Tell the Royse City office whether you have prior combination-vehicle or straight-truck experience.

Separate your ELDT record from your test-truck reservation

For an applicable Class A or B path, online theory and in-person range and road activity have different purposes. Match the curriculum to your license goal and confirm the provider’s completion record. Vehicle rental covers the truck or bus reserved for the test. Ask separately about eligibility for the complimentary behind-the-wheel activity.

Which Texas office should I visit?

Start with the licensing agency for the permit or endorsement. A general driver license office may have a different address from your assigned skills-test site. Use the exact location on your appointment when requesting a test truck.
