Learning to drive in Glen Rose
Glen Rose is the Somervell County seat and the county’s only active municipal taxing unit. Its driving environment is shaped by US 67, SH 144, FM 205, FM 56, the Paluxy River, tourist traffic, RVs, campers, hills, curves, rural roads, Dinosaur Valley State Park, Fossil Rim Wildlife Center, and major future transportation projects.
For beginning drivers, Glen Rose’s strongest local lesson is anticipating unfamiliar drivers. Visitors may brake unexpectedly, miss turns, slow while looking for attractions, or make late lane-position changes.
Texas Parent-Taught Driver Education is for eligible teen students completing driver education with a qualifying parent or other authorized instructor.
