Georgia Teen and Parent Driving Guide
As of January 2007, all Georgia drivers license applicants who are under the age of 17 must complete 40 hours of supervised driving with their parents. The Georgia teen driving guide can help both teenagers and parents plan their driving lessons.
Driving Guide Contents
The driving guide was developed by the Georgia DDS in order to help both parents and teens to navigate through the first hours of driving. It is divided into 30 driving sessions. Each driving session takes the teenage driver one step further, slowly easing them into controlling a vehicle. A checklist is provided at the end of each session so parents can keep track of all exercises performed by their student driver.
In addition to driving lesson plans and the checklists, the guide also has the Georgia driving log that must be presented at the DDS upon the application for a drivers license.
