No Time to sit in the classroom for 6 hours??
By Texas state law, all driving safety courses are 6 hours in length, and students must attend all six hours of the course in order to receive a certificate.
If you don’t like to sit 6 hours straight in a classroom, Texas Education Agency has approved the delivery of specific driving safety courses via alternative delivery methods (ADM) such as the Internet, CD, DVD, Cable TV, and Videotapes.
If you take an ADM course (that is, other than a classroom course), no instructor will be present. Every so often during the course, personal questions such as "Is the vehicle you normally drive a 2-door, 4-door, pickup, or other?”, will be asked to verify if you are the person who’s taking the course. These questions, which often use third-party databases to verify your answers, are designed to ensure the identity of the person who is completing the ADM, and you will also be asked course content questions to ensure that you are reading and learning the material.
At your own convenience, you may break up an ADM's online, CD-ROM, DVD, Cable TV, or Videotaped course into segments of almost any length. You may also take the course via those means at any time of day or night, and there will be a 24 hour-a-day help line available. You will be given that toll free number to call if you need technical assistance or have a question about the course content.
