Georgia CDL Requirements

In order to obtain your Georgia Commercial Driver’s License, you need to be at least 21 years of age. Applicants between 18 and 20 may apply for a “Georgia only” CDL, which allows them to drive a commercial vehicle within the state. You’ll need to provide two forms of ID, proof of residency and social security, as well as pass a medical examination. In order to pass your CDL test, you’ll need to first pass the general knowledge test.

Specific vehicle types also require additional knowledge tests, such as the passenger transport test, combination vehicles test, hazardous materials test, tankers test, doubles/triples test or School Bus test. Upon successful completion of your knowledge tests, you’ll take your skills test, including pre-trip vehicle inspection, basic vehicle control and on-road tests.
