Texas state law test
The 24 rules that belong to Texas alone, each carrying the statute number it was drafted against. Each answer is tied to the rule it tests. No signup, no email.
24 questions, 35 minutes. The timer starts when you begin, and answers are shown at the end.
How the real Texas exam is graded
TxDPS publishes a 70 percent pass mark and nothing else: no question count and no time limit, so both the length and the allowance on this paper are ours. The claim circulating online that the Texas test stops after 10 wrong answers appears in no DPS source, and DPS issues the exam to driver education schools as a printed PDF, which could not end early even if it wanted to.
This paper allows 35 minutes. That allowance is ours, not TxDPS's, because no published limit exists for this test.
What is specific to Texas
Texas requires driver education of every first-time applicant under 25, not just teenagers, which catches adults moving from other states. Every applicant must also complete the Impact Texas Drivers video course before the driving exam. There is no points system on a Texas license at all: instead a driver becomes a habitual violator at four convictions in 12 months. Drivers under 18 face a total wireless ban including hands-free, and the adult supervising a learner commits a criminal offense if they sleep, are intoxicated or are otherwise not paying attention. Posted limits run to 85 mph on some highways, the highest in the country, and annual safety inspections for non-commercial vehicles ended on 1 January 2025.
How many attempts do you get?
Three attempts per application, then a new application and fee. An application is held for 90 days after a first failure. After 90 days, or after three failed exams, a new application is required.
