Under what age must a Texas driver license applicant complete an approved driver education course?
-
A.
Adults new to Texas at any age
-
B.
Teens under 18 seeking a first license
-
C.
Any applicant younger than 25 Correct
-
D.
All drivers younger than 21
The answer is "Any applicant younger than 25"
Any applicant younger than 25 must complete an approved driver education course. Choice D lines up with the drinking age and the end of most under-21 license markings, and drivers who don't know the actual cutoff reach for a more familiar age.
The traps in the wrong answers
A. Adults new to Texas at any age
Reads the rule as tied to residency status rather than to the applicant's age. This answer confuses driver education with the ninety-day new-resident licensing deadline.
B. Teens under 18 seeking a first license
Limits the requirement to teens even though the handbook reaches applicants into their twenties. This answer assumes driver education stops at eighteen because the GDL restrictions do.
D. All drivers younger than 21
Below the under-twenty-five threshold the handbook actually prints for driver education. This answer reaches for the familiar drinking-age cutoff instead of the education rule.
