When applying for a Georgia driver's license for the first time, you must apply ________.

• A. Online
• B. In person
• C. By mail
• D. Through a third-party

Answer: (B)

Getting a first-time Georgia driver’s license requires an in-person visit because the process needs in-person identity verification and the completion of mandatory tests before the license can be issued. At the DMV/DDS office, you present the required documents, pass the vision test, and take the knowledge exam (and the road test if required). These steps can’t be fully completed online or by mail for an original license, which is why an in-person appointment is necessary. You can start online to pre-fill information or schedule, but you must go in person to finalize the license. If you’re under 18, there are additional steps (like parental consent and a permit history) that also require in-person handling.
