One needs to have a Commercial Driver’s License to drive a truck in Texas. To get a Texas CDL, one must first have the necessary qualifications as well as pay the corresponding fees to apply. CDL applicants must be at least 18 years old to drive in Texas. If you want to drive interstate, then you must be 21 years or older. It is also important that you do not have any criminal records with regards to certain crimes that may disqualify you from certain types of CDL endorsements. All applicants must also get a DOT medical certificate to prove that they are physically fit to drive.

After meeting the basic requirements and supplying the required supporting documents, applicants can then submit their applications and schedule a date for the written exams. Applicants are encouraged to read the Texas CDL Manual before taking the test. Aside from the General Knowledge Test, additional test will also be given for each endorsement the applicants want to add to their CDL.

Applicants who pass the knowledge test(s) will be given a temporary permit that will allow them to drive a commercial truck with the supervision of a licensed driver. If an applicant feels that he is ready to take the exam, he must then go to the DMV office and schedule the road test. The road test will be divided into a pre-trip inspection, basic driving skills, and on-road driving. Applicants must pass all three parts to get the CDL.
