Nathan’s has been certified by the DDS to conduct the Georgia driver’s license road test!!  That’s right, rather than registering with and traveling to the DDS, you can take your road test directly with Nathan’s.

All students 17 and under who successfully complete the 30/6 driver’s training course (thirty hour class and minimum of six hours behind the wheel) with us may take the state road test for a GA driver's license directly at Nathan’s. (Students who completed a driver’s training course at another school may take the road test at Nathan’s upon presentation of a 30/6 Certificate and after completion of one behind the wheel lesson at Nathan’s.  And adults 18 and over may take the road test with us as long as they have had at least one lesson with us.

A road test can be added on to any package of six hours or more for a discounted rate ($100). The normal rate for a road test is $140.  See below to register.

​

Using Nathan’s at the DDS

Nathan’s also offers the use of its vehicles (along with an instructor) for use to take a road test at the DDS.  This service includes a one hour lesson immediately before the DDS road test.  We provide service to most DDS locations. (*Students must schedule their road test directly with the DDS on their own.  Once you have your appointment with DDS you can schedule with us, but we typically need at least 2 weeks notice). All minors must have a parent or guardian accompany them to the DDS or fill out an affidavit and release allowing a Nathan’s instructor to take them to DDS. See below to register.
