ABOUT THIS COURSE
The Basic Skills Check helps evaluate whether a driver has the necessary skills and abilities to drive safely,
which can demonstrate their readiness to become a licensed driver in Colorado.
This is an ideal option for:
- Individuals who experience test anxiety or lack driving confidence
- Adults who have not had their driving skills assessed in a long time
- Teens or new drivers who want to assess their readiness for their official driver’s license test
The Basic Skills Check consists of a 20-minute drive where your drive tester will evaluate your skills and ability
to perform safe driving maneuvers, such as:
- Left and right turns
- Stopping at intersections
- Navigating through intersections
- Lane changes in traffic
- Merging into and leaving traffic
- General safe driving behavior
Your instructor will evaluate your perceptual, motor, and attentional skills as outlined in the Colorado Driver
Handbook, including:
- Lane selection and management
- Proper use of communication skills
- Speed control, braking, and smooth acceleration
- Complete stops and safe following distance and gaps
- Scanning and observational skills
After the evaluation, your drive tester will provide feedback on your strengths, areas needing improvement,
and whether additional practice is recommended to better prepare for your official license test.
