New Drivers

Now that summer is nearing its end, many teenagers have completed their driver’s education courses. The Colorado Department of Transportation has a great website for new drivers and their parents called “The Driver’s Seat.” Information is available for teens and parents on all sorts of driving topics including the Graduated Drivers Licensing program, driving tips, and driving safety.

In 2006 the General Assembly passed several new measures applicable to young drivers. An issue brief, “New Driving Laws for Minor Drivers“, from the Legislative Council provides a nice overview. Other materials on driving and driver’s safety are available from the State Publications Library. Use the keyword “driving” in our library catalog for a list of titles.
