Howdy, Partner! Tradin' Your Texas Tumbleweed for Sooner Sunshine? Get Your Oklahoma Driver's License Here!
So, you've decided to ditch the steers and two-steppin' for tornadoes and...well, more steers? Welcome to Oklahoma, friend! We've got friendly folks, delicious fried everything, and the wind can occasionally pick you up and plop you down a county over (but that's part of the charm, right?). But before you start wrastlin' a roadrunner, you gotta get yourself a Sooner State driver's license. Don't worry, it ain't rocket surgery (unless you're headed to Tinker Air Force Base, then maybe it is).
Here's how to swap your Texas tea for some Oklahoma crude (metaphorically speaking, of course, we don't want any spills):

| How To Switch From Texas To Oklahoma License |
Round Up Your Proof: You Ain't No Cattle Rustler
First things first, you gotta prove you're not some kinda Texas two-stepper who just moseyed on over for some tax-free barbecue. Gather up the following documents:
- Your trusty Texas driver's license: This ain't goodbye, friend, just a see-ya-later.
- Something that screams "Oklahoma, I'm Home!" We need proof you've set up camp. A utility bill, lease agreement, or that "Welcome to Oklahoma" postcard your momma sent will do the trick.
- Identification that ain't your driver's license: Think birth certificate, passport, or that social security card you keep stashed under your mattress (don't worry, we won't tell).
- Social Security number: But hey, if you're reading this and thinking "Social security what-now?", no worries, we don't need the actual card, just the number itself.
Pro Tip: If your name on the documents ain't matchin' your driver's license (maybe you got hitched or something), bring along that marriage certificate or court order to prove it ain't a case of mistaken identity.
QuickTip: Reading carefully once is better than rushing twice.
Dodging the Written Test: Unless You Like Oklahoma Trivia
Now, the good news! If your Texas license is still spry and your driving record ain't dirtier than a hog after a mud bath, you might just dodge the written test altogether. That's right, no need to sweat over Oklahoma City trivia or which animal has the right of way on a crosswalk (it's always the cow, obviously).
But hold your horses there, partner! This written test dodgeball only works if your Texas license is valid and you ain't tryin' to switch from a motorbike to a monster truck (different licenses, you see). Also, expired licenses older than six months gotta take the test, no exceptions.
Pony Up for the Fees: It Ain't Free, But It Ain't a Steal Either
Head to your local Oklahoma Tag Agency (think DMV, but with a twang). They'll take your documents, have you sign on the dotted line, and separate you from a few bucks. The exact amount depends on the type of license you have, but it won't break the bank (unless you park in the wrong spot too many times).
QuickTip: Skim fast, then return for detail.
The Grand Finale: You're Officially an Okie Driver!
Once you've hopped through these hoops, you'll be struttin' out of that Tag Agency with a shiny new Oklahoma driver's license. Now you can legally roam our highways and byways, from the rolling plains to the Tulsa Art Deco district. Just remember, the speed limit ain't just a suggestion (unless you're outrunning a tornado, but that's a whole other story).
