Where can I take a Texas DPS skills test?

Travel & scheduling

Questions before you book.

What if I’m comfortable with a trailer but new to the air-brake check?

Tell the office exactly which parts you have practiced. Ask about pre-trip familiarization and review the air-brake procedures in the Texas commercial driver manual before you travel.

Where are in-person services available?

Get Your CDL Quick schedules in-person vehicle services in Royse City. If you have a DPS appointment near Amarillo, confirm the rental location and availability with the office before you travel.

What should I ask for in my quote?

Ask for each selected service, the test-vehicle rental, applicable fuel and other charges, retest terms and the written price total. Confirm which services qualify for complimentary ELDT behind-the-wheel and what proficiency you must demonstrate.

From a Amarillo permit application to test day

1. Arrange your commercial learner permit

Use the Texas DPS application checklist to gather identification and applicable medical documentation. Book the appropriate knowledge exams. For a first CDL, allow at least 14 days between CLP issuance and the skills test.

2. Check your ELDT completion

Choose the theory course for your class or endorsement. For skills-test routes that require ELDT, confirm that your listed providers have submitted the applicable theory and behind-the-wheel completion records using the information on your license.

3. Match your appointment and vehicle

Confirm DPS application payment with the driver license office. Save the test notice and the rental confirmation separately. Prepare for the vehicle inspection, basic vehicle control and road portions in a representative vehicle.
