In Texas, all you need is a parent who will sign off that he/she taught you to drive. No need for drivers’ ed anymore.
We also have illegals driving willy nilly.
“No need for drivers’ ed anymore:
You didn’t need driver’s ed when I started driving back in the 50s and we all drove stick.
Now there are too many distractions INSIDE the car.

“No need for drivers’ ed anymore.”
When I went to get my drivers license in 1969 there was drivers ed in the school, but I wasn’t in school anymore, I was working on the farm.
I walked into the local DMV and told the clerk I was there to get my drivers license.
He knew my family pretty well.
He looked at me and asked how long I had been driving the farm truck. When I told him three years he nodded and said “anyone who can drive that Studebaker with a load of cattle has all the training he needs”.
He gave me my DL, chauffeurs license and the motorcycle license just in case I bought a bike. :)
