The Online Colorado Driver Education Process for Teens

Students using our Colorado Driver Education course may get their permit at age 15 :

  • Driver Education Permit - 15 years and older.

You will be issued a driving permit which will be valid for 3 years after issuance if you meet the following requirements:

  • Certified Birth Certificate or other acceptable forms of identification .
  • Pass a written and vision screening test.

You must have with you at the time of testing the following: (We provide this for you!)

  • A completed Affidavit of Liability Guardianship (DR2460). 
  • A completed Affidavit of Completion of a Online Driver Education Classroom Course indicating you have completed and passed the classroom portion of a state-approved driver education course within 6 months prior to applying for your instruction permit. (back of the DR2460)
  • The 30 hour classroom driver education course can be classroom or internet. The Statement of Completion form is located on the reverse side of the DR2460.

A Colorado Driver Education Permit allows ONLY the signer of the DR2460 and/or the Driver Education Instructor to complete and log the 50 hours required on the drive time log sheet. This restriction does not apply to any person 18 years of age or older.

While you are under 18, if the person(s) who signed the DR 2460 does not hold a valid Colorado driver's license, they may appoint an Alternate Permit Supervisor. The Alternate Permit Supervisor must hold a valid Colorado Driver's License and be 21 years of age or older. Drive time with an Alternate Permit Supervisor will count toward the 50 hour total required on the log sheet.

The person(s) who signed the DR 2460 may also allow ANY person 21 years of age or older, who holds a valid license, to supervise you while you are driving but that drive time does not count toward the 50 hour total required on the log sheet.

 

After holding you permit for 12 months you will be issued a Minor Driver's License (ages 16 - 20) if you must completed the following requirements during your 12 months time:

  • Must hold instruction permit for 12 months (if under 18)
  • Must be at least 16 years old
  • Present a completed and signed Drive Time Log (if under 18)
  • License will expire 20 days after your 21st birthday
  • During the 12 months complete a 6-hour Behind the Wheel (BTW) Class OR a 4-hour Driver Awareness Program class, If you obtain your permit before age 15/6 months of age you are required to present the BTW certificate. If you are 15 1/2 or older when you got your permit you can substitute the BTW for a 4 hour Awareness Course with the State Police. Exeption: If you live 30 miles from the nearest commercial in-car training school, you can choose to simply have your parent or gaurdian supervise an addition 12 hours of behind the wheel training. 

Every applicant under 18 years of age must submit an 'Affidavit of Liability and Guardianship' DR2460 signed by a parent, stepparent,  guardian or grandparent with Power of Attorney. The DR 2460 must be verified by either a Driver's License employee or a Notary Public. If the signer is a guardian, original court documents showing guardianship, custody or adoption must be presented. If the signer is a grandparent with Power of Attorney (POA), the original POA must be presented and a copy of the POA must be surrendered upon application for the permit. If neither parent is living, the legal guardian of the minor may sign the affidavit. In this case, court-ordered guardianship papers are required. The affidavit may be obtained at any Motor Vehicle Driver License Office, from the back of the Driver License manual or downloaded above.

 

Adult Age Group- 21 years of age and over

Instruction Permit:  expires 3 years after issuance. Adults do not have to hold an instruction permit for any required amount of time but do have to first purchase an instruction permit before taking a drive test.  Instruction permits are issued once you pass the written and vision tests and pay the fee.

Adult License: Expires on the birthday 5 years from the year of issue.

Temporary Document: Driver's license offices no longer have instant photo equipment. Driver's license offices will issue a paper temporary license, permit or IDcard, which is valid for 30 days, while your photo is processed. Because you will receive your photo document in the mail, it is important that your address is correct. If you do not receive your photo document in the mail after 30 days, you should report it to the office where you originally applied.
