Drive Smart Georgia

Drive Smart Georgia is the ONLY driving school in Atlanta to specialize in teaching teens how to drive. “We are passionate about teaching young people,” explains Co-Founder/CEO Kirk Bressette. “That’s why we don’t offer a DUI program. We made the right decision to concentrate on teen drivers and we are the only driving school in the city to do so.”

Alan Brown, the driving force behind Joshua’s Law, agrees and endorses Drive Smart Georgia. After losing his son in 2003 due to a car accident, Mr. Brown turned his grief into a personal crusade. He lobbied the Georgia Legislature and got Joshua’s Law passed in 2005. Since then, Joshua’s Law has saved thousands of lives.

Concerning Drive Smart Georgia, Mr. Brown states…

I’ve had the opportunity to work with driving schools all over the country. One thing is for sure – they all are not the same. Drive Smart Georgia is the best driving school I’ve ever seen. They truly care about keeping kids safe on the road.

In 2009, Johns Creek Driving School opened its doors. After changing our name to Drive Smart Georgia and opening locations in Johns Creek, Cumming, and Alpharetta, we quickly developed a reputation for being the best driving school in the city. Drive Smart Georgia has taught more than 30,000 students how to become lifelong good drivers.

Our services include an in-person or Zoom 30-hour Driver's Ed class, one-on-one in-car driving lessons, and a convenient on-site road test.
