Free Georgia DDS Test Simulator 2026
This DMV Test Simulator is modeled on the Department of Driver Services (DDS) written knowledge exam, which has 40 questions; to pass you need at least 15 of 20 on each part (Road Signs and Road Rules). It is a mock test: 40 questions, the length of the real test, scored to the 75% pass mark. Answers are marked only when you submit the whole test, then you review every question with its explanation. Every question includes an explanation, so you learn the rule behind each answer - not just whether you got it right.
Georgia DDS mock test
Answer all 40 questions first. Nothing is marked until you submit the whole test, so the score shows how ready you are, and then you review every answer with its explanation.
- 40 questions, the same number as the real test
- To pass: at least 15 of 20 on each part (Road Signs and Road Rules)
- Skip, go back and change answers until you submit
- Unanswered questions count as wrong
Time: We found no published time limit for the Georgia knowledge test.
What's on the Georgia DMV Test Simulator
The real Georgia knowledge test has 40 questions. The Georgia test is scored in separate parts, so the limit applies to each part: you can miss at most 5 of the 20 Road Signs questions and 5 of the 20 Road Rules questions. Missing more than that on either part fails the test, even if your combined score is high. The simulator draws a fresh set from all 201 Georgia permit questions each time, so no two attempts are the same.

- A. $25 to $250
- B. $50 to $500
- C. $100 to $2,000 (correct)
- D. $500 to $5,000

2. Under Georgia's 'Slow Poke' law, what must you do when faster traffic comes up behind you in the left passing lane?
- A. Move right, even if you are at the speed limit (correct)
- B. Stay put if you are going the speed limit
- C. Speed up until you match the faster car
- D. Tap your brakes to warn the driver behind
Why: Georgia's Slow Poke law (HB 459) requires slower drivers to leave the passing lane for faster traffic no matter how fast they are going. Exceptions include heavy traffic, bad weather, paying a toll, or preparing to exit or turn left.

3. A red circle with a red slash through a symbol means:
- A. The action is required ahead
- B. The action shown is prohibited (correct)
- C. Caution for the action shown
- D. The action is allowed after stopping
Why: A red circle with a diagonal slash means the action depicted inside is prohibited - for example, no left turn, no U-turn, or no trucks.
4. What is the danger zone around a large truck where the truck driver cannot see you?
- A. Only behind the trailer and on its right
- B. In front, behind, and along both sides (correct)
- C. Only beside the cab on the driver's side
- D. Large trucks have no blind spots with modern mirrors
Why: Large trucks have significant blind spots (no-zones): directly in front (20 feet), directly behind (30 feet), to the right (2 lanes wide), and to the left (1 lane). If you cannot see the driver's face in their mirror, they cannot see you.

5. What is this sign warning you about?
- A. Loose gravel on the road
- B. Slippery when wet (correct)
- C. A steep hill
- D. A winding road
Why: This sign (a car with curved skid lines) warns that the road becomes slippery when wet. Slow down, increase your following distance, and avoid sudden moves in rain or snow.
6. Your brake lights are not working. Which hand signal tells drivers behind you that you are slowing or stopping?
- A. Left arm out and bent upward
- B. Left arm held straight out
- C. Right arm waved out the window
- D. Left arm out and bent downward (correct)
Why: An arm extended out and bent down signals slowing or stopping. Arm bent up is a right turn and arm straight out is a left turn.
