Cobb Driver's License Applicant Gets 80-Point Boost
The Sandy Springs man accused of helping the applicant was arrested.
A 29-year-old Sandy Springs man allegedly changed the grade of someone who failed the state's driving test.
The applicant received a 10 on the exam, according to a Cobb County criminal warrant. But Danlami Olugbenga Sanya allegedly changed the score to a 90, wrote "Pass" by the score and gave the altered test to a Georgia Department of Driver Services employee at the Northeast Cobb satellite office on Canton Road.
Sanya was arrested Friday on a charge of false statements or writings, conceal facts or fraudulent documents in matters of government. It is a felony offense.
