REQUEST FOR A PARENT TAUGHT
DRIVER EDUCATION PACKET DL-92 (Rev. 5/12)
DO NOT MAIL CASH. Mail check or money order payable to: Texas Department of Public Safety. A separate request form and fee are required for each student who will participate in the Parent Taught Driver Education Program.
Program Eligibility Requirements
• Student must be 14 years of age prior to beginning the classroom portion, however they may not test for a learner license until their 15th birthday.
• Instructor must be the student’s parent, step-parent, grandparent, step-grandparent, foster parent or legal guardian appointed by a court of competent jurisdiction. A power of attorney is not legally sufficient.
• The instructor must have a valid driver license for the preceding three years; or if active military personnel or spouse, a valid driver license from state of permanent residency or last duty station for the preceding three years.
•The instructor cannot have a conviction (including a probated sentence) of criminally negligent homicide or driving while intoxicated. In addition, the instructor must not have had their driving privileges suspended, revoked or
forfeited for traffic related violations in the past three years. The instructor is responsible for checking both their criminal or driver records prior to requesting the packet. The Department will verify the instructor’s record at
the time of processing the student’s learner license and again at the time of processing the student’s provisional driver license. If at that time, we determine that the instructor does not meet the requirements, we will deny
the learner license or provisional driver license along with any prior classroom instruction or behind the wheel/in car instruction provided by the ineligible instructor.
• The instructor may not be disabled due to mental illness. Questions as to mental stability will be forwarded to the Medical Advisory Board for determination.
The instructor may go to any local driver license office to have the student apply for the license and take the required test. (Some stations require an appointment or may allow online scheduling for the skills test.)
