What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
Georgia licenses driver training schools through the Department of Driver Services under O.C.G.A. § 43-13-1 et seq. A school must file a continuous $10,000 surety bond for each location as a condition of licensure, naming DDS as the obligee.
The bond exists for the protection of the contractual rights of students. If a school takes a student’s money and fails to deliver the contracted instruction — or closes mid-course — the harmed student can recover against the bond. By statute, the surety’s aggregate liability never exceeds $10,000 per location.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a student claim, you repay the surety. Each location you operate needs its own bond, written by a company authorized to do business in Georgia.
