What counts as night driving in Georgia?
Most states — including Georgia — define legal night driving astronomically, not by a fixed clock time. Night hours generally begin around civil twilight or roughly 30 minutes after sunset, and end around sunrise. That means a drive at 8:45 PM in June may count as day, while a 6:00 PM drive in December counts as night.
- Georgia requires at least 6 of your 40 hours to be completed at night.
- Sunset shifts daily — a fixed schedule like "drive after 7 PM" can misclassify hours on your DMV log.
- DriveLog calculates sunset for your location automatically and classifies each session as day or night using official astronomical data — no guesswork.
