Why a Vehicle Checklist Matters for Your Tyler Road Test

At our new Tyler office, we provide the training vehicle for your DPS road test, but you still need to bring certain documents and know what the examiner will inspect. Being organized helps you stay calm and focused on driving safely.

Documents You Must Bring to Easy Drivers Ed Tyler

Make sure you have these items with you on test day:

  • Valid Texas Instruction Permit (original – not a copy)
  • Proof of liability insurance (we provide the vehicle, but proof is still required)
  • Completed DL-14A or DL-14B form if you are under 18
  • Any court-ordered documents (if applicable)
  • Glasses or contact lenses if required for driving

Vehicle Safety Items the Examiner Will Check

Even though we supply the car at our Tyler location, the DPS examiner performs a quick pre-drive inspection. Here’s exactly what they look for:

  • Horn works properly
  • Brakes (including emergency brake) function correctly
  • All turn signals and brake lights are working
  • Headlights, taillights, and hazard lights operate
  • Windshield wipers are functional
  • Mirrors are properly adjusted and intact
  • Seatbelts for driver and passenger are in good condition
  • Tires have adequate tread and no visible damage
  • Windshield is free of major cracks
