These Georgia government resources are your starting point for the current rules. Check the learner’s permit or license stage and any special rules or alternatives, as well as the required hours.

What to check for this learning stage.

Teen Class D supervised-practice baseline.

Joshua's Law has education and training-path conditions; the app compares practice only.

  • Total practice: 40 hours. Training path and permit timing need verification in state details.
  • Night practice: 6 hours. Logged night is an estimate; verify your state's definition and qualifying practice.
Check the current official rules.These planning notes come from our reviewed sources; they are not a complete statement of requirements or a decision that a learner qualifies. Exceptions, age, training and licensing stage can change what applies. No new legal review is implied by this page.

Use the app for the record.

PracticeLane records drives, saves drives added by hand, and lets you save a readable practice log. Choosing a state adds basic comparisons to help you plan. The app does not decide which hours count, confirm who supervised, or determine whether you qualify for a license.

Night totals use the app’s estimates or night minutes you entered. Your state may define night differently. Check its forms and signature requirements before using a saved report.
