Getting your Texas Learner License should be a super happy event, but the fear of knowing what to bring can be stressful. We understand! Online Driving Professor’s TDLR-Approved course has a complete Texas Learner License Checklist to make sure our students bring the necessary items to apply for and receive their Texas Learner License quickly and easily.
