LicenseClass M

Min. age16 permit, 17 license

Helmet requiredAll riders

AgencyDDS

Motorcycle knowledge exam (special road signs and road rules tests; DDS does not publish the number of questions) plus a vision exam. For Class M you also pass the Rider Skills Test, four riding evaluations with the last two at about 15 mph, on your own street-legal, insured motorcycle. A GMSP 90-day waiver replaces both the knowledge and skills tests.

Georgia motorcycle rules

Rule	In Georgia
Minimum age	16 for a Class MP permit; 17 for a Class M license
Helmet and eye protection	Georgia has a universal helmet law: every motorcycle rider must wear a DOT-compliant helmet, regardless of age, and eye protection is required. dds.georgia.gov
Rider training course	The Georgia Motorcycle Safety Program (GMSP) Basic Rider Course (2-3 days, with a 5-hour eCourse and 10 hours of riding; motorcycles provided) or Basic Rider Course 2 is optional, but graduates earn a 90-day License Test Waiver that skips the knowledge and skills tests. To graduate you must score 80 percent or better on the written evaluation and pass the riding evaluation. dds.georgia.gov
Skills test waiver	Yes (both tests)

Georgia motorcycle permit restrictions

Ride only during daylight hours, with no passengers, and never on limited-access roadways such as interstates.
Wear a DOT-approved helmet and the other safety equipment required by law.
The Class MP permit is valid for 6 months and can be renewed only once.
Your motorcycle knowledge exam score is valid for 1 year; if you do not pass the skills test in that time, you must retake the knowledge exam.

How to get a Georgia Class M motorcycle license (Class MP instructional permit)

Submit the online License/ID/Permit Form before visiting a DDS Customer Service Center.
Bring identity, Social Security and residency documents; if under 18, also bring your Joshua's Law driver education certificate, ADAP certificate, proof of school enrollment and a parent or responsible adult to sign.
Pass the vision exam and the motorcycle knowledge exam, have your photo taken, and pay the $10 fee for the Class MP permit (age 16+).
Practice within the permit limits: daylight only, no passengers, no limited-access roads.
Either complete a GMSP Basic Rider Course for a 90-day test waiver, or schedule the Rider Skills Test with your own insured, street-legal motorcycle, DOT helmet and goggles.
At 17 or older, present your waiver or pass the skills test and pay the license fee to get the Class M license.

Tip: Many motorcycle crashes involve a car turning left in front of the rider. Expect questions about being seen, lane position and intersections, in addition to the state rules above.

No, it is optional. You can take the knowledge exam and the Rider Skills Test at DDS instead. But GMSP Basic Rider Course graduates get a 90-day waiver of both tests, and the program provides training motorcycles.

Can I carry a passenger on a Georgia motorcycle permit?

No. Class MP holders may not carry passengers, may ride only in daylight, and may not use limited-access roadways.

What happens if my motorcycle permit and test score run out?

A Class MP permit can be renewed only once, and the knowledge exam score is valid for one year. If you have not passed the skills test within a year, you must pass the knowledge exam again before scheduling it.

Is this motorcycle practice test free?

Yes. Every lesson, practice round and simulation is free, with no sign-up.
