Steer Clear: The Hidden Dangers of Unlicensed Driving Schools

 

State officials in Georgia are warning drivers and families about uncertified driving schools operating without proper credentials. These schools may advertise professional training but fail to meet state safety and certification standards, leaving students without valid credit for their courses — and potentially unsafe behind the wheel.

However, investigations by 11Alive News revealed that some schools falsely claim certification or credentials. The Georgia Department of Driver Services (DDS) has issued cease-and-desist letters to several such operators and can escalate cases to the Attorney General’s Office for consumer protection violations if warnings go unheeded.

DDS officials urge consumers to verify certification before enrolling in any driver education or improvement class. Certified schools are listed on the DDS website, and there are hundreds of approved options statewide. One of those schools is A-1 Driving Schools, a fully certified, trustworthy driving school that will help you hone in on your driving skills.
