- Follow the directions in this video to understand the steps you need to take to obtain a brand new Texas driver license. The information you need is easily accessible on the DPS website.
Should have done this long time ago, now it's 10 times more infuriating. i'll be sure to bring my entire school desk as well.
😂😂😂😂🤣
LMBO... They forgot to mention the 7 hour online course youhavetido now if ur between the ages of 18 to 25..and don't forget to print out ur certificate cause without it they send you back home
@@jeanettebelgara3294 Yup, so you better have your paperwork/insurance papers/SSN/Adult-Young 7 hour course certificate/ and your learners permit.
😂😂😂😂😂
um..boo hoo? If you want to live in this world, you have to stop complaining and just fucking do it like everyone else. If you want to be successful in life you gotta buckle up (that was a pun) and just do it.
Ok the title of this video is misleading. It should be “what you need in order to apply for your DL”
SAME SHIT X)
I’m moving to Arizona or Nevada; you’re just suppose to show up confident that you can drive and you can just take the drivers test and you’re done.
wait are you serious, i want that, gimme that, get me outa this state

@@Kotturos ye they do that in California too lmao
From my experience here in Texas, many government organizations require you to do a shit ton of paperwork just to get the help you need.
That Impact Texas Young Driver's test.....I already have a major depressive disorder. Thanks a lot Texas for putting me back in therapy.

man I own a vehicle been driving for years, I know how to drive but this is a nightmare. just give me my license and stop asking me for 6 hour tests that cost money, on top of that having to pay for the license as well. y'alls website is more confusing than anything.
its MANDATORY to learn about road safety!!!! and since those courses they want you to take should of been taken when your 15- before 18. ITS STRICT BUT DRIVING IS A PRIVILEGE NOT A RIGHT!!!
@@itzelferman7175 I don't mind taking courses, I mind the money that they cost and the 3 month wait to get a license, I'm already legal in the U.S. from years ago and they ask for too many things and they give you so much bull over one document. Like for real they make it super hard for a citizen to get one and even more with covid.
I couldn’t get my ID for a while before COVID because they did make a big deal over every fucken piece of paper i brought in that they required and after COVID I got it easier. Now I’m trying to get my DL I already started the course for 24$
@@Yu_chan18 then after this course I will start on the IYD get that certificate then apply for the DL
@@itzelferman7175 from 15-18 my bitch of a mother didn't let me get one. I'm now 20 and still don't. I can drive but I'm not getting a fucking license, cops don't pull you over anyway, all Houston drivers drive like they're off a fentanyl cart and are actively losing oxygen to their brains, they let anybody on these roads
You'd think they dont want you to move to Texas lol
We don't please stay out
@@justingonzales435 I smoke everyday never do anything
Texas is red, but a lot of people here are blue. It really depends which part of Texas you move to.
as someone born in Texas, *I* want out 😩
It’s like they’d rather you not have a license
Fr...!
Ive been driving for almost 2byears without it just to and from work but im trying to get a new car so i had to take an online drivers course for about $30 and now im trying to schedule an appointment and its more difficult than doing my taxes
for good reason honestly, but i do wish it were easier on the paper end
@@User-zl9pj sorry for the late reply, but yeah you have to take a 6 hour course if you're 18-24. I used driversed.com it was like $40. I did that & I had to watch a hour watch an hour video from the impact drivers website (impacttexasdrivers.dps.texas.gov) & registered with the credential from the 6 hour drivers course. then scheduled an appointment to see a local DMV office but for me when I got there with my info I was given a permit & was told to reschedule for a road test. I never did & waited a month & my license came in the mail. I have no idea why probably because of the pandemic but I just rolled with it lol. Hopefully that was somewhat useful
@@Legendarykoenma woah you’re saying you got your drivers license without doing the skills test? Lucky you
Does it bother anyone else that she says "driver license" and not _"driver's_ license"?
yes. very.
It is so annoying!
Look at your driver license. It clearly says Driver License.🙄
@@teresasoriano6880 I'm not saying she's incorrect, I'm saying it sounds weird.

@@zoomforlife haha ok just make sure you dont click on a fake texas.gov website and how can you tell that is real... well you can't there real website looks like a scam lol :)
Yo, stop expecting everyone to do things for you and google it dumbass
"faster"? Iv been avoiding this test for years!
PENDEJA
Yes, I'm getting my driver's license now at 17 and I've been terrified for years, because years ago I saw my sister watching this test for 2 days straight, then she did this test, went to the DMV, came back because they didn't get some paper they needed, even though they brought a million things with them, went back the next day, came back again because something else was needed, went back finally did the test, then there was some complication or something where she didn't get her license until 6 months later, hopefully things go better for me.
I moved back to TX in 2009 after 9yrs and was in and out of the DMV with my new DL and it had my old DL # on it which I already had memorized.
might as well just bring every single paper in my house and my counselor’s and doctor’s desk
My appointment is not until November and that’s just so they can check I have everything ready so I can take the driving course and for that it’s ANOTHER APPOINTMENT. This is ridiculous.
If you just did a driving test appointment they should’ve done the paperwork that day and given the provisional license. That’s what I got told at my DPS office
@Caleb Sims dam dude you'll never get an answer
Wow, this is confusing. Nice job, Texas
How do I do this ? Since we’re in quarantine
Leave it up to the government/governors to create the most inefficient and bureaucratic systems imaginable. Privatize the DMV!
Privatizing the DMV would just make everything more expensive. What we really need is more DMVs, and better salaries, so they arent cripplingly understaffed
@@hyphen8d725What are you saying? Throwing money at an already innefficent and bureaucratic system only makes it worse. In Connecticut, AAA is allowed to do drivers license renewals if they are non CDL. Typical time to renew a driver's license? 10-15 minutes.
@@jonathano503 What do you think makes the system inefficient to begin with? It's understaffed. Allowing "private companies" does nothing but to put essential services behind a paywall and lead to a predatory market. If demand is guaranteed, and a few companies have conplete control, they can do whatever they want to squeeze more money out of everyone.
Been trying to get my drivers license for a whole year now because I’ve been turned away twice and the wait time between appointments are nearly HALF A FUCKING YEAR LONG!
Nah they’re backed up so long I think they just don’t want to do their jobs
Do previously issued enhanced MRZ DL count for citizenship with Texas? They do at the border with US CBP, but none of the forms I have seen allow them. Why?
do you have to take the drings test the day you take the forms and application?
How do you apply for the test? So confused someone help me pls
customer service call line=joke, cause it's not real.
It’s still a joke to this day
@@carolinaalvarenga2662 no one answers any of the phones....ever!
“easier” sure
hey
It is not difficult as you think, I got such experience too but thanks to this legit vendor +19089130608
I'm currently using my new ID.
This video says nothing about ITTD and the ITYD videos that must be watched. I guess this video is assuming only individuals over 24 years of age ,
Question: is the impact drivers video online just a video or is there a test after?
Thank you for these instructions! I've been intimidated by this, so this made me feel more confident about what to do!
so im trying to schedule a driving test online! when i click on the link... it takes me to a page where i have to sign in using a DL!!! im like i dont have a DL yet!!! someone please help!??
Deal application
I found the information quite useful for me who is applying for a feal driver.s license.thanks.
How is section 3 different from section 1?
If you don’t have section 3 (c) please see section 6 (d) as well as documentation from subsection 2 ( a thru g) then proceed to section 1 then select either option a or b, after completion of these please proceed to section 4 and 5 through 8 to register to start the process for applying for a Drivers License, please note- finger prints, urine test, and one of 3 variations of DNA, and a copy of all your children’s’ birth Certificates or Adoption Records, will be required to be provided to an authorized DPS employee . When all of the previous requirements have been met you then be permitted to attend the dPS location of your choosing to start the procedures for applying for a Driver’s License.
What if I don't own a vehicle? Can I still apply to get a license?
where do you take the ITD tests
Okay so i have to have a pre printed paystub within 90 of my drivers liscence appointment? Im so freakin lost on this part
Has anyone done this while their Adjustment of Status was pending?
I’ve been living here for 2 years w/ my NY DL and I’m only desperate to get my Texas DL now to keep law enforcement off my back.. but based on this shit I’m out of options. Vital check won’t send my original birth certificate due to some covid related delay. I have every other document though, what do I do? Just go to jail for being denied by their complicated ass dmv
If I don't own the car do I have to be on the insurance if I'm 19
It won't even tell me if I can take the test the same day I apply. I'm trying to figure it out somewhere and it's not clear. My friend had to schedule an appointment after applying. I thought I could do it the same day. Ugh it's always something and I've been trying to take the test for the past couple of days. Damn it
do i need driving hours and need to go to a driving school ?
Hello. So, I already have my driver license with a restriction (it is an under 21 permit but I am now over 21). It is still valid, expiring in two years, and I am only now going in to take my road test. Will I still need all of these documents, including proof of residency? And will I need to complete a driving license application again?
Also, at 1 minute and 42 seconds, the voice says "a previous year W-2" but the video says "W-2 from the current year." So, can I use a W-2 for the year of 2018?
What’s a pre printed check stub
can i do the behind the wheel test and the vision test and applying for DL all using the same appointment? if no, which one should be done first?
Did you end up getting answer i need the same answer :(
@@Char-nx3de did you get that answer i need it please
I can't find anywhere on your website where you take the online test? all your links keep going to some Impact Texas Driver page.
That is the test
@@danielarmstrong2635lol so true
That's the hour one... If between the ages of 18 to 25 there is also a 6 hour course where we can't find
The 6 hour test can be done at drivers education of america website
The link for the Checklist does NOT work!!! FYI!!!
How can I provide Texas vehicle registration if I had just moved there? Does that mean I have to change my car registration to Texas first and then change my license?
Can’t I just do both right there?
J P maybe you’ve figured it out already but yes. First you have to register your car at one location. Then you have to schedule and appointment to transfer your license at second location 🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️. In that order.
I need to make an appointment.... Help please
Do you have to book an appointment or can I just come in?
Easier with appointment
I'm trying to get my license since I'm almost 30 and shit they been given me a hard time not making me an appointment i always call them and said Wait and nothing
Nice
I've just arrived in US and oh boy am I having a treat. Never have I ever had to do a RESEARCH to apply for a license.
This video does not tell us about how to obtain drivers license - it simply retorts the paperwork. It does not tell about the process, appointment, tests, or fees.
it is the worst governement process i've ever experienced.
Unreal.
Wait so can I take the knowledge test at home due to Covid-19? Btw I'm in TX
Need to take the test now DL now
So I go and do all this before doing All the required courses and Impact Young Drivers certificate?
I have the same question too. Nowhere on the website does it make it clear it’s annoying.
You need to get a certificate in drivers Ed of minimum 6 hours then take the Young impact drivers classes before applying for the DL! don't forget all these NECESSARY STEPS!!!!! and don't forget the certificates to make it easier !!
The website looks different on the phone or because it is 2024?
If you complain about this, you should try Tennessee. TX has it pretty good.
If i take the 6hr Adult drivers ed course online, do I need to have a learners permit to be able to do the road test at the dps?
Victor this is what I was wondering plus mine is more than 90 days old so I gotta retake that shit🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️????
I believe so. When you finish your final tests of your online adult course, you can take the certificate to DPS and apply for an adult learners permit.
I just found out that to do your road test at the DPS, you dont need a permit. But, if you're planning on taking the road test at a local Driving School (some schools do offer road tests) you will need to get your permit first at the dps

@@troyparker6165 If you're talking about that Impact Texas Drivers course then yea you will have to do it again
@JERIA WISE You can do your driving test whenever at the DPS or at a driving school that offers the driving tests
What can i do if i only have my texas offender card and birth certificate for a texas id card
This genuine guy +1702-907-9165 at the DMV office recommended to me helped me out getting a new Tx dl license delivered at my address. I'm stress free and my license is perfectly scannable with the high quality holograms visible on it.
So do i call to make an appointment or not? Do i just get there with all my paper work?
Do you know the answer yet?
Adrian 34 did you get an answer ?
Chris P did you get the answer? LMAOOOO
Scott Guzman i ended up going with all the papework and signed form and they gave me a link to make and appoinment for the roadt test online
Chris P Honestly wasn’t expecting you to answer lol. But wow, I appreciate it! Thanks for responding and letting me know! :)
Does anyone know if my wifi bill will count as a utility bill to get my tx drivers license? Thanks!
Before I know they couldn't use it... But I'm hearing now they are accepting the cable bill
Thanks for the response dear but they had accepted my wifi bill and it is more than 9 months now after i had got my driving license. They were accepting it also.

eivry rose I paid like $75 for drivers ed before I turned 18, now that I’m 18 I paid $40 because the other one became useless
do I have to show a social security number? I cannot find mine.
Yeah, or atleast have it in your phone somewhere as a pic.
I have my permit from another state (AZ) do I need to do the test and all that crap again???? They got the wrong one yo 🤔🤔😷
JUST AN FYI--- if you have done you’re written in another state they don’t make you do it again in Texas. All I needed to do was get my permit in Texas then I got my road test done and got my license.
@@dejapatterson154 I have my permit from Florida and I set an appointment and it’s in a couple of days when I go there with my documents can I get my license straight away after I do the road test?
@@angelg1514 hey 👋🏻
Short answer is yes IN TEXAS
I set my appointment for my road test and I passed. Then after I passed they gave me my temporary license and I got my final license in the mail 2 weeks later. As long as you have taken your writing test and have passed all the other documents you should be able to get your license the same day. If not the next day for sure!
You WILL need to take the test again but they will also take away your current DL for the TX DL if you pass and your driving record is clean!!!
I am 28 years old! Do i need any type of classes to get my very FIRST DL?
Ok
A six hour course online
No u don't
not in texas, if you are over 25-- you dont need a driver's education
Do the ITYD Driver's Impact program on the website and bring your completion certificate with you when you apply in person.
The more complicated they make the system, the more people will drive around without a license. And that would make matters worse for everyone!
Okay can someone help me, on my permit it says class c but i have restrictions where someone 21 and up needs to be in the passenger seat. Im trying to make an appointment to get my driver adult liscence but im not sure which one to press when making an appointment to schedule a road test . HELP PLEASE .
I have the same issue😭
@@spl00fy92 PLEASE HELP ME, did y'all figure it out??? my appointment says CLASS C, but i dont know if that means my on the road test? I am so lost
Funny story so a few months ago I set up an appointment to take a drivers license test bc im already 18 and graduated, plus I looked up on google and it said if you’re 18 and older you are not required to have a permit. I took the online course before I turned 18 and I took the online test and I passed. So when the day came to take my drivers license test, I gave them my info etc… but they said I have a permit bc my certificate was “expired” but when they printed out my learners permit, it said DL and only temporary until this date etc. So I think they messed up and gave me a drivers license instead.
What are some ways I can study for the tests? As in online programs. Also do I need some sort of certificate of completion or is it different once you are 18?
Thanks
im 26 with no assistance trying to figure out how to set up a written test, I know i have the knowledge to pass but cant figure out how to take the dang thing.
You should try virtual drive Texas it’s very easy and it includes the written test and you have to do is complete 8 very long modules it take about a day take the test ...pass it then print the paper and your ready for the driving test
at that age you don’t need the written test no more 🤔
@@KarenRodriguez-jp3wz what is the link?
Very Dank
do you need a learners permit if you are over 18 to get a drivers license in texas?
Cookie eater no 18 an over you can just get your drivers license
iRun thanks
I have been trying to find an answer for this same question for weeks now. My kid is 19 and he has the 2 certificates needed already, and the Driver's License application filled out. We need to know what's the next step?
Ivonne Vidal so it turns out if you’re in texas like me you actually have to have a permit to take your actual test it’s apparently illegal to take the test without a permit
Oh so you need a permit even at 19? Oh my gosh! My kid is gonna get mad. He thinks after he gets the 2 certificates and takes the Impact video for his age, he can just make the appointment for the road test and get his DL. Smh. You gotta love TX.😡 How did you find that out, @cookie eater?
Does anyone know a good site to get there ADE ?
Jesus you look hot af
Yeah i need it too. Anyone?
@@stellahsz3200 Weirdo, have some respect.
See ya'll on the road!
ill find you
I just want to know all I need to exchange my out of state license to the Texas one 😔
Its easier to exchange your out of state DL but they will take away your current DL for your new Tx one and if you have any car accidents in any other states they will also pull that information up and if there's accidents it'll be a longer process.
A faster friendlier experience? Seriously
can I apply online
Yeah I'm currently using my new scan able and authentic DL thanks to this legit vendor +19089130608. He's got the best service.
excuse me i lost my green card a while back but the office has a copy of that info on file. can i still get my licence
Why does the Texas DPS driver license application force Hispanics choose white for race? I'm not white I'm brown.
Because hispanic/mexican/latino is not a race.
Can I take a 2 door car to the test?
Sure🤷♂️ why not
I took it 3 weeks ago and I passed !!
I hadn’t been at all but they letting people still take the test with corona going on?
To get a license?

All these requirements and people still can't drive. Well maybe it's cause non of them actually have a license due to the complicated process.
They make shit so fucking complicated
This an excessive amount of steps. Booo Texas.
Fuck you
Fuck you
Fuck you
You are so lazy and fat
Drew Peters booooo Texas and I’m born and raised
Dude
This is super stupid, showing the passport should be enough and local address of course, those utility bills and other papers are not needed.
They wouldn’t take my damn mail with my valid current address for reasons that they wouldn’t even explain, all with that trademark attitude.
Anybody else but me who has to retake their test for a long time have to deal with this information
Truth be said, yes. Texas has more requirements for the license thanks to the trespassers.
this is so excessive, boomers still stuck with the old times. make everything online.

So many fucking steps
Bahahahahahahahahaha what’s with the freakin ID lists. Wtf. Anything else?!
The impact video they want you to watch is fucking bullshit, horrible format that doesn’t allow you to skip and if you mess up the video restarts you can’t skip it. Watched a 20 min video and had to watch it again.
I don’t even care about the license anymore
