For Tyler drivers

A straight truck and a bus need different preparation

Tyler has passenger transit as well as access to the I-20 freight corridor. A driver changing from deliveries to passenger service should check the bus type, seating capacity and endorsement required for the job. Use those details to ask about a bus instead of automatically reserving a box truck.

CDL and ELDT options for Tyler drivers

Tyler freight and passenger-service choices

Tyler drivers moving between delivery and passenger work can match CDL preparation to the vehicle used on their next route. 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 Tyler. 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.
