Drivers ed teaches the rules of the road, hazard recognition and safe habits. States set the required hours and the age cutoffs. Texas and California require teens to complete an approved course before getting a learner's permit. Florida requires both a teen course (DETS) and an adult course (TLSAE) before a first license. Adults over 24 in Texas are not required to take drivers ed1.
Aceable is an online provider approved or licensed in each of these states. The courses satisfy the classroom requirement; behind-the-wheel hours are completed separately.
