For Waco drivers

A skills test notice is only one part of the trip

DPS lists Waco CDL as a skills-testing-only site. If you have a Waco notice, keep that location separate from any Royse City practice arrangement and ask where a rental is available. Compare dates and locations before committing to either trip.

CDL and ELDT options for Waco drivers

Waco skills-test and vehicle scheduling

Waco applicants can separate the commercial skills appointment on Jewell Drive from the office visit for a learner permit. Use the vehicle guide below to compare equipment with your intended work.

Which ELDT do I need?

For a first Class A or B CDL, a B-to-A upgrade, or a first passenger or school bus endorsement, covered applicants need both theory and behind-the-wheel training. A first hazardous materials endorsement requires ELDT theory before the knowledge exam.

Where do I practice and test?

You can study online with ELDT Theory Now from Waco. Get Your CDL Quick schedules vehicle familiarization in Royse City. The examiner conducts the inspection, basic control skills and road test at the location in your DPS confirmation.
