Georgia DDS Written Test Guide

Updated for 2026 · Test details verified against the official Department of Driver Services handbook.

Georgia's DDS knowledge exam runs 20 questions weighted toward traffic signs, right-of-way, and the Joshua's Law requirements for teen drivers. Before you visit a DDS Customer Service Center to take it - and then tackle Atlanta's interstates - our Georgia practice permit test, drawn from the official Georgia Driver's Manual, gets you exam-ready.

What to Expect on the Georgia Permit Test

The Department of Driver Services (DDS) requires every new driver to pass a written knowledge test before being issued a learner's permit. In Georgia the exam has 20 multiple-choice questions, you need 15 correct to reach the 75% passing score, and you must be at least 15 years old to apply. Every question is drawn from the official Georgia driver's handbook, so the topics on our practice tests match exactly what the DDS asks.

Topics Covered on the GA Written Test

  • Traffic Laws: State-specific rules of the road, including right-of-way, lane changing, and intersection rules
  • Road Signs: Recognition and meaning of all standard road signs - warning, regulatory, and informational
  • Speed Limits: Default speed limits, school zones, work zones, and highway speeds
  • Safe Driving: Following distance, blind spots, defensive driving, and weather conditions
  • Alcohol & Drugs: DUI laws, BAC limits, and consequences of impaired driving
  • Parking Rules: Legal and illegal parking situations, curb colors, and distances

How to Prepare for the Georgia Permit Test

The strongest preparation pairs a read-through of the official Georgia Driver's Handbook with repeated practice tests that surface your weak spots. Because the DDS draws all 20 questions from that handbook, Georgia drivers who consistently clear 75% on our practice tests - and review the explanation on every miss - usually pass the real exam on their first attempt. Aim for 15 or more correct, every time, before you book your appointment.
