How Many Questions Are on the Georgia Motorcycle Test?
The Georgia Department of Driver Services motorcycle written knowledge test has 20 multiple-choice questions, and you need to answer at least 15 of them correctly (75%) to pass and receive your Class M license or endorsement.
The official test format
Riders who complete an approved Georgia Motorcycle Safety Program (GMSP) rider course can have the written knowledge test and road skills test waived, which is a meaningful shortcut compared to testing directly at a DDS Customer Service Center.
Riders who don't take the course must pass the 20-question written test, covering topics from the motorcycle section of the Georgia Driver's Manual.
Because DDS procedures and test formats can change, always confirm the current format and course-waiver requirements on the official Georgia DDS website before your appointment.
How the questions are distributed by topic
The official test draws from the full range of topics in the motorcycle section of the manual rather than any single area, covering everything from protective gear to braking technique to sharing the road with cars.
Our free Georgia motorcycle practice tests cover 14 topic areas, including cornering, braking, group riding, and mechanical inspection, so you can see which areas need more review before test day.
How our practice tests are structured
Rather than mirroring the exact 20-question format, dmvwrittenexam.com splits its 100+ original Georgia motorcycle questions into full-length practice tests, so you get more total repetitions across more topics than a single official-length test would allow.
Each question includes an explanation and a source reference, so you learn the reasoning behind the correct answer rather than just memorizing it.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I skip the Georgia motorcycle written test entirely?
Yes, in many cases. Georgia riders who complete an approved Georgia Motorcycle Safety Program rider course can have the written and skills tests waived. Confirm current eligibility with the Georgia DDS.
Is the Georgia motorcycle test the same format as the regular permit test?
No. The regular Georgia permit test is split into two 20-question sections (Road Rules and Road Signs), while the motorcycle test is a single 20-question test, both currently using a 75% passing score.
What happens if I don't pass the motorcycle written test?
Retake policies, including any waiting period, are set by the Georgia DDS and can vary. Check with your local Customer Service Center for current retake rules.
