Georgia rules that catch people out

These come from questions learners find hardest. Each links to the page of the handbook it comes from.

  • After the first two six-month periods, a Class D driver may carry up to three passengers under 21 who are not immediate family. The limit stays in place until you upgrade to a full Class C license.

    Georgia Drivers' Manual 2023-2024, page 28

  • DDS must suspend the license of anyone who accumulates 15 or more points within 24 months. The date each violation occurred is used to measure the 24-month window.

    Georgia Drivers' Manual 2023-2024, page 49

  • Georgia suspends the license of any driver under 21 who is convicted of any 4-point violation, such as reckless driving. Young drivers get very little margin for serious mistakes.

    Georgia Drivers' Manual 2023-2024, page 49

  • Georgia's points chart assigns 3 points for speeding 19-23 mph over the posted limit. The points climb with speed: 2 for 15-18 over, 3 for 19-23, 4 for 24-33 and 6 for 34 or more.

    Georgia Drivers' Manual 2023-2024, page 48

  • A Super Speeder conviction adds a $200 state fee in addition to any local fine. Missing the payment deadline leads to a license suspension and another fee to reinstate.

    Georgia Drivers' Manual 2023-2024, page 22

  • For a driver under 21, a first DUI with a BAC of .02 or more but under .08 brings a minimum 6-month suspension (12 months if the driver already has a conviction for certain serious offenses such as reckless driving). A BAC of .08 or more, or a refusal, raises it to at least 12 months, and no limited permit is available.

    Georgia Drivers' Manual 2023-2024, page 28

  • A first DUI conviction within 5 years brings a 12-month suspension, with eligibility for early reinstatement after 120 days and a limited permit available. Penalties rise sharply for second and third convictions.

    Georgia Drivers' Manual 2023-2024, page 24

  • Unless a sign prohibits it, you may turn left on red from the left lane of a one-way street onto a one-way street whose traffic moves to your left. You must stop, yield and make sure the turn is safe.
