Driving Test Tales: A Spanish Expat's Surprisingly Easy Georgia Experience A Spanish woman, Mariona Falomi Silla, recently shared her experience taking her driving test in Georgia, USA, highlighting a stark contrast to the process in her home country. The test, costing only $20 for both the written and practical portions, surprised her with its simplicity. "Nunca había hecho algo tan fácil y sencillo para algo que es tan importante aquí en USA como conducir," she stated, emphasizing the ease of the process.
