ABOUT THIS COURSE
The Practice Drive Test is a great way to determine whether an eligible driver has the skills and ability to pass the Colorado Driver’s License Test. This is a great option for:
- Teens who are not sure whether they are ready to take their license test.
- Individuals who struggle with test anxiety or lack confidence in their driving skills.
- Adults who have not had their driving skills assessed for some time.
- Those who wish to improve their likelihood of passing their license test on their first (or next) attempt.
The practice drive test consists of a 20-minute drive that simulates the conditions of an actual driver’s license test. Your driving instructor will ask you to perform a series of driving maneuvers including merging into traffic, right and left turns, stops, lane changes and more. The instructor will assess your steering technique, vehicle control, and speed management among other skills.
Following the test, your instructor will give you feedback on those driving skills where you have demonstrated mastery, which ones require additional practice, and whether you are prepared to take your license test. The assessment is based solely on what the instructor observes during the Practice Drive Test, and therefore cannot serve as a guarantee that you will pass your license test.
Testimonials
Dani T, Littleton/Lakewood
Your instructors and staff are fantastic and I’m so glad I went with DriveSafe!
Kathryn S, SE Aurora
The instructors were amazing! They were able to teach my son things that I’m not very good at doing… Like parallel parking! My son was nervous to be stuck in a car for 2 hours with the instructors but each time when he finished his drives he was so excited to tell me everything he had learned! It was well worth the money spent!
Richie G, Louisville
My son’s driving lesson experience was so encouraging to him that he can’t wait for another driving lesson! He started out very nervous and walked away very confident. It accomplished exactly what we hoped, in building up his skills and his confidence in driving on roads. Everyone we have met and talked to in the Louisville office has been so helpful, friendly and personable, it’s been a real delight working and talking with them.
Russ A, Westminster
Very kind and professional service. There was nothing about this experience that was even slightly negative. The instructor was kind and patient and provided all the information necessary to my daughter to complete here driving test successfully on the first try. I feel like I got a bargain considering the services that were received. Thanks to all of your staff for the professional and courteous service.
Johnny K, Highlands Ranch
Just a great experience all around. My son had a great instructor fir his last drive out of this location and the test today was hassle free. My experience has been great and worth what we spent.
Kuldeep M, Greenwood Village
Instructor was very helpful and polite. I was very nervous due to my drive test but he helped me to settle my nerves. 1 hour refresher before the test was very helpful and he shared some very useful information about driving. Overall great experience.
Michelle T, Boulder
Our son doesn’t like many activities outside of his comfort zone. This was his first day driving and the instructor made him feel confident and empowered. He got him to laugh.
Laura H, Westminster
The behind-the-wheel and defensive driving instructors are top notch! Our son learned a lot and gained a lot of confidence from the experience. And he crushed his driver’s test! Thanks Drive Safe!
Shay T, Littleotn/Lakewood
My teenager had great instructors for his day of Defensive Skills Day! He really enjoyed the entire three hours of instruction and I think he is a more confident driver as a result of taking this hands on class.
Cathy U, Highlands Ranch
I like that you can do (almost) everything at DriveSafe….testing, classes, behind the wheel, etc. There is little to no need to go to the actual DMV!!! The instructors are very helpful and encouraging to the students.
Carmina E, Aurora
Driving instructor did an amazing job. Above and beyond. Exceeded my expectations and made my son’s driving experience exceptional!
Jacob W, Littleton/Lakewood
DMV was so slow in processing our son’s driver license application that we got down to two days before he was supposed to move to college and then they told us he needed to do a drive test. We called DriveSafe and they got him scheduled for the following day. They were very nice and helpful, he passed, and now he’s off to his college adventure. Thanks DriveSafe!
Carrie R, Wheat Ridge
My son’s first driving experience with an instructor had him really nervous, but DriveSafe Wheat Ridge was kind, reassuring and supportive! He is looking forward to his next lesson!

Tonita S, Greenwood Village
I had a young new driver that had anxiety concerning driving. The instructors at this location have been very kind and are so knowledgeable.

We are very pleased and will enroll our son at the end of this year or beginning of 2021.

My favorite part of the class was the skid course and the obstacle course, because both were really fun as well as good to know/use for the future.
Parent, Highlands Ranch
My daughter attended the Defensive Skills Day and it went well. I got to ride with her at the end when I returned, and I have to admit, I was very shocked at how much she improved! She drove me through the timed obstacle course and her skill level blew me away. She said she has much more confidence in driving now. This course is very well worth the money and I highly recommend it to all parents.

I enjoyed the course. I enjoyed that you can go at your own pace and never have to leave the house. No weaknesses.

The customer support via phone call was outstanding, and the staff did a wonderful job of answering any questions I or my family may have had. It was a beneficial experience.

In comparison to the one my son took beDrivingAmerica was a lot better. My daughter enjoyed and really understood this more. Very great online class. I would recommend this to anyone.
Lindsey N., Colorado
I felt that the course provided a lot of material to help me understand driving better.
Anthony, Colorado
I liked the course. It taught me things I’ve never heard of like the IPDE process. Some strengths are they go in to good detail when explaining things. The chapter quizzes were good too because it keeps your mind refreshed about what you just learned. There wasn’t really any bad things. I think over all it’s a really good course.

The commentators and the overall welcoming atmosphere of the course was nice. Also the layout is easy to use. I recommend this course.

Really liked the course. Strengths: the way it was presented made it really interesting. I learned alot. NO WEAKNESSES.

Joshua T., Colorado
“The course was quite enjoyable. One of my favorite parts of the course was that I could complete it at my own pace at home. This required me to be responsible in completing the course and retaining the information, which I liked. The tests after every chapter also helped in the retention of information…”

Casey, Coordinator
“DriveSafe Driving School was a great experience from setting up the training, customizing to our needs, to affordability and the actual bus training. They accommodated our every need and made all the effort to make our teachers comfortable driving our buses. They came to us which made the whole experience seamless. Thank you for making our experience easy and we will absolutely be using DriveSafe Driving Schools for all our bus training.”
James, Field Safety Lead
“In order to enhance the safety training of our staff, we contacted DriveSafe to provide an upgrade on their driving abilities. The session consisted of classroom and in-vehicle time. Our instructor made the classroom session enjoyable and easy to sit through, which was much appreciated and refreshing as the classroom sessions are typically dry and uninteresting. The in-vehicle session was a great reminder of the how we can all end up with some bad habits and how to correct them. We will definitely use DriveSafe again for training as the need arises.”
