NEW COLORADO GRADUATED DRIVER'S LICENSE LAWS 2026
Colorado’s updated Graduated Driver’s License (GDL) laws change what’s required for teen drivers — including a mandatory 30-hour driver’s education course for all teens through age 18, with new restrictions throughout the licensing process. Following a recent meeting with the State of Colorado, enforcement has been delayed and will not take effect until January 2027, but these are official laws on the books now. We encourage families to get ahead of the requirements early.
Community Driving School offers every course required under the updated GDL laws at four convenient Denver metro locations, so your teen can meet every requirement in one place.
