Testimonials

Hope J, Westminster

They took time to work carefully with my son who is both dyslexic and autistic. They paired him with wonderful instructors for both the driving and the classroom lessons.

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.

Gerri R, Arvada

Staff is incredibly welcoming and kind. They are patient and great at giving constructive feedback in a polite manner.

Kari J, Westminster

My son had a great experience for his first drive with an instructor. She provided a comfortable, low stress environment, challenge his knowledge and was encouraging with her feedback.

Jennifer N, Boulder

I felt there was great communication between the instructor and myself and the instructor and my daughter. It is great to have a place that I can trust to help out with this huge endeavor! So helpful to have an outside person (aka not a parent).

Jacqueline, Greenwood Village

This is quality service that is second to none. Again thank you for the outstanding service and providing quality programs for better and safe driving skills for our children.

FAQ

What is the 4 hour driver awareness class in Colorado?

The 4-Hour Expanded Driver Awareness Program (EDAP) in Colorado is an abbreviated driver’s education class available to students 15 1/2 years old and older. This class qualifies eligible students to receive their permits. It is offered in both in-center and Zoom formats, providing flexibility for students to choose how they want to participate.

For more details, you can visit the Expanded Driver Awareness Class page.

Driver’s awareness refers to a driver’s ability to recognize and respond to potential hazards, road conditions, and the behavior of other road users. It involves staying alert, scanning the environment, anticipating risks, and making safe, responsible decisions behind the wheel. Developing strong driver awareness is key to preventing accidents and staying safe on the road.

You can improve your awareness while driving by staying focused, minimizing distractions, and constantly scanning the road ahead, behind, and to the sides. Check your mirrors regularly, keep your hands on the wheel, and anticipate the actions of other drivers, cyclists, and pedestrians. Avoid using your phone, eating, or engaging in activities that take your attention away from the road. Staying well-rested and calm also helps keep your mind sharp and your reactions quick.

A virtual driver awareness course covers the same key topics as an in-person class but is completed online. You’ll watch instructional videos, complete interactive lessons, and take quizzes on safe driving habits, hazard recognition, traffic laws, and decision-making behind the wheel. The course is designed to help you become a more alert and responsible driver. At the end, you may need to pass a final assessment to receive your certificate of completion.

Written Permit Test

In addition to our drivers ed courses that prepare students for the written permit test, we are also state-certified to offer the test at our DriveSafe locations. The test covers Colorado’s driving regulations, and it consists of 25 multiple-choice questions. By skipping the stress of the DMV and taking the written exam in a familiar, friendly environment, students are able to focus more thoroughly on the questions in front of them.

6-Hours of Driving Lessons

During these driving lessons, students will work one-on-one with caring, state-certified driving instructors to build the skills necessary to become safe and competent drivers. Our expert instructors work hard to ensure that each student’s experience is inspiring and impactful, as our goal is for everyone to leave our driving school feeling confident in their driving abilities and fully supported throughout the entire learning process.

Drivers License Test

The drivers license test evaluates students on over 100 items, which can lead to test anxiety in even the most confident of student drivers. Our drivers license tests are conducted by patient, experienced instructors who work hard to create a calm environment where students can fully focus on the road in front of them. Regardless of whether a student passes or fails, every road test concludes with constructive, supportive feedback.

3-Hour Defensive Skills Driving Class

During this three-hour class, students learn defensive driving skills that will help them be better prepared to handle hazardous scenarios. While traditional drivers ed classes cover the skills needed for day-to-day travels, our defensive skills class teaches more advanced techniques that focus on the unpredictable nature of the road. Students have fun with this engaging, hands-on defensive skills course, and parents get to rest easier knowing that their sons and daughters will leave the class more equipped to safely respond to emergencies. Topics covered include handling a vehicle during a skid, making precise maneuvers, recognizing and actively avoiding hazards, driving without distractions, and performing basic car maintenance. 

Additional 2-Hour Driving Lesson

Add an extra 2-hour lesson to your training. Perfect for students looking to boost confidence, fine-tune specific skills, and improve their chances of passing the driver’s license test.

Parent Training Course

The Parent Training Course is a driver’s ed tool designed to help parents effectively teach their teens how to drive throughout their permit-holding period. Available via mobile app for convenient access, it offers structured drive lesson plans, interactive learning tools, and practical exercises to help teens develop and reinforce safe driving habits. 

Safe Car Safe Driver

This 80-minute interactive clinic is great for teens preparing to get their license, new drivers, or anyone looking to increase their vehicle safety awareness. With hands-on demos, participants gain practical knowledge in emergency preparedness, roadside procedures, and safe driving habits. Exercises include live tire change, jump-start tutorial, full under-the-hood walkthrough, and more. 

DriveSafe for Life Guarantee™ 

Our DriveSafe for Life Guarantee™ allows all DriveSafe students to meet with an instructor to address any issues or questions that they have, regardless of how much time has passed since they left our driving school. Our instructors will be happy to explain explain how to resolve the issue or make a recommendation for further instruction if necessary.
