Texas permit test — state rules flashcards

1 deck · 45 cards · built into Willys · free samples below

Written against: Texas Driver Handbook (DL-7), revised January 2026, checked 2026-10-09, and against state law in force on 2026-10-18 (where the two differ, the cards follow the law and name the handbook's figure); state-specific figures only — pair with the national core. Updated 2026-10-10.

Only what is specific to this state. The national core (signs, right-of-way, signals, safe driving) comes along when you add this exam in the app.

A study plan

  • 5 new cards a day covers everything in a month, leaving the last weeks for review.

Willys schedules reviews for you (FSRS spaced repetition), so the daily number above is only for new cards; reviews of what you have learned come back on their own. Study a topic's cards right after you meet it in class, suspend topics you have not reached yet, and use the app's quiz mode in the final two weeks.
