Learning to drive in Emory

Emory is the Rains County seat and the county's principal commercial center. Its road environment is shaped by US 69, SH 19, SH 276, FM 275, commercial entrances, regional trucks, rural intersections, Lake Tawakoni access, and city-to-rural transitions.

For beginning drivers, Emory's strongest local lesson is learning to judge the speed of approaching traffic before entering higher-speed roads.
