As an alternative to ordering your copy directly from the state, Driving University can get a certified copy of your Texas driving record for you within 5-7 business days for only $22. Remember, even if you order your Texas driving record from DPS online, it will still take them 5-7 business days just to process your request and put your driving record in the mail.  Then, you still have to wait an additional 5-7 business days for it to arrive in the mail. Driving University’s Texas Express service is the best value because we can have your Texas driving record in your hands in the same amount of time it takes the state to get around to looking at your request.
