Frisco doesn't have its own DPS office. Most Frisco residents are served by McKinney (north) or Carrollton Mega Center (south). Carrollton typically runs 2-3 weeks better than McKinney despite serving a larger area, because its Saturday hours pull demand away from weekday slots.
Estimated Appointment Duration
45-60 minutes at the DPS office for learner permit
A Texas learner permit allows teens aged 15 and older to begin supervised driving practice. The permit holder must be accompanied by a licensed driver who is at least 21 years old and seated in the front passenger seat at all times. Before applying, the teen must complete an approved driver education course (classroom portion). At the DPS appointment, the applicant will take a vision screening and the written knowledge test (30 multiple-choice questions, 70% required to pass). The permit is valid for one year and must be held for at least 6 months before the teen can take the driving test for a provisional license. This is one of the most in-demand DPS appointment types, especially during summer and back-to-school season when driving school test packets are expiring.
