What you need to know

This Georgia DDS practice test has just been updated for September 2024 and covers 40 of the most essential road signs and rules questions directly from the official 2024 GA Driver Handbook. To receive your Georgia learner’s permit or driver’s license you will need to pass the 40-question knowledge exam (also known as permit test), divided into two sections with 20 questions each. You must answer 75% of the questions correctly in each section – the first about road rules, and the second about road signs – to pass your knowledge exam. By studying the 2024 Georgia Drivers Manual, you can find the information you need to answer all possible test questions. While the road rules test is available in some languages other than English, the road signs test is only available in English. You must begin your permit test 30 minutes or more before the service center is scheduled to close, in order to provide an appropriate amount of time to complete the test and issue your permit or license if you pass. The cost for a learner’s permit is $10, and it is valid for two years. If you are under 18, you will need parental permission to be issued your permit. The cost for a regular driver’s license is $32, and it is valid for eight years. This Georgia DDS permit practice test has 40 multiple-choice questions and the same 75% passing ratio as the real knowledge exam.
