Drivers Education Courses

In Texas, there are choices to choose from when it comes to drivers ed. DriversEd.com provides education options that make it easy and inexpensive for you to take. So whether you’re interested in Parent-Taught Drivers Education or Professional Instructor-Led Drivers Education, you’re sure to find a program that works for you and your family. We’ll discuss the difference between them both and how DriversEd can help.

Parent-Taught Drivers Education

Parent-Taught Drivers Education (PTDE) is for teens between the ages of 14 and 17 to take the theory part online and complete the driving portion behind the wheel with a parent. Families decide to go this route because it puts the parents in control, and they’re with them every step of the way. But parents need to understand that as their teen's instructor, parents must be responsible and supervise the entire process.

This includes the theoretical portion online and the practical portion which will take place in the family car. Parents must commit 32 hours of academic instruction, 14 hours of in-car instruction, and 30 hours of driving practice (10 hours of which must come at night). The course will take an absolute minimum of 60 days to complete.

If you decide to do it this way, DriversEd.com has an online PTDE course specifically developed to help make the learning process more successful. Parents can rest assured that the course curriculum fully meets state requirements and will prepare teens for the DPS written permit test. The course even includes unlimited free online practice tests to help prepare for the real test!

Professional Instructor-Led Drivers Ed

Professional Instructor-Led Drivers Education allows teens to go at their own pace and then take driving lessons with a highly experienced professional driving school instructor. Driving lessons take place in the driving school’s vehicle, which is specially equipped with additional mirrors and an added brake to keep the new driver safe.

Parents can also feel at ease knowing the instructor is not only experienced but are great communicators when it comes to your teen and their understanding of the driving course, state-licensed with a background check, up to date on the latest techniques in crash avoidance, braking, driving safety, and Texas driving laws—and they’ll pass that knowledge on to novice drivers!

If you decide on Professional Instructor-Led Drivers Education, your teen will not only take their online driver's education with DriversEd but the professional driving lesson as well. They will teach the basics of driving as well as defensive driving techniques to maximize the safety of novice drivers behind the wheel. Plus, completing our Texas teen drivers ed course enables your teen to take the DPS knowledge test online for free.

I Think He Forgot Something

I Think He Forgot Something So this is funny. But according to nwitimes.com , a 33-year-old suspect made his getaway after robbing a convenience store but didn't get far. The guy had robbed a LaCrosse gas station after he informed the store clerk he had a gun. The suspect, Sean Harris, made off with food, beverage items, and cigarettes… but no money! I guess the guy was super hungry since the report stated he had a blood alcohol level higher than the limit for legally operating a motor vehicle. Harris fled the gas station, with whatever he could carry, when an Indiana State Police trooper came upon the getaway car. Not in some crazy high-speed chase, or from using some awesome spy satellite that Vin Diesel uses in all his action films. NOPE! Harris’ vehicle ran out of gas. That’s right, he forgot to steal some fuel before making off with his goodies. The Indiana State Police trooper found his vehicle stopped along a two-lane highway. Harris is being held in jail without bail.

Looking for a Pre-Owned Pickup Truck?

Looking for a Pre-Owned Pickup Truck? Pickup trucks are both functional and fun to drive. Many people choose to own pickup trucks because they have the capacity to haul most things such as campers, travel trailers, other cars, horse and cattle trailers, just to name a few. They also offer space for hauling many different things in the bed. This is convenient because no one wants to put a bale of hay or a deer carcass inside the cab of a vehicle even if it does fit. Trucks not only offer functionality but are also just fun to drive. They are high off of the ground and can typically travel places other low vehicles cannot go. They are great for off-road driving. They are also suitable for what is a typical Texas country tradition, mudding. Who doesn’t want to find a good mud hole and bust some 180’s and sling mud everywhere? How Do You Choose A Pickup Truck For You? Not everyone wants a big, high off the ground pickup truck. Some people want a pickup truck that offers a spaciou
