Official information
🌐 Languages
Georgia's non-commercial driver's knowledge exam has two parts: a Road Rules section (driver responsibility, traffic laws, and safe-driving practices) and a Road Signs section. Georgia DDS officially offers the Road Rules test in 26 languages — including Vietnamese, Korean, and Chinese — so for the rules-of-the-road portion these are genuine testing languages, not merely study aids. However, per Georgia DDS's official manual, the Road Signs identification test and the behind-the-wheel road test are conducted in English only, and every applicant must be able to read and understand simple English as used on highway and directional signs. In practice: the rules-of-the-road knowledge test is available in your language — a real advantage over Florida (which moved all driver-license exams to English-only in February 2026) and Texas (which offers the regular knowledge test only in English or Spanish) — while the sign-identification and driving portions require basic English. The knowledge exam is given on a walk-in basis at any DDS Customer Service Center statewide. [Sources: dds.georgia.gov/list-languages and dds.georgia.gov/section-3-testing-information, checked 2026-07-14] — the Road Rules written test is available in 26 languages including Vietnamese, Korean, and Chinese; sign identification and the driving test are in English only.

One Gwinnett thread asked about the road (driving) test route at the Lawrenceville DDS so a new driver could get familiar with the local intersections beforehand — this concerns the behind-the-wheel test, not the written knowledge test or its language. No first-hand account of taking the written test in a non-English language was found; language availability rests on the official DDS 26-language menu.
