Search it, filter it by topic, or hide the answers and quiz yourself. Quote the short versions from the verified answers page, and take the timed practice tests when you want exam conditions.
1. You received your Colorado instruction permit at age 15 and want a minor driver license as soon as possible. How long must you hold the permit first?
- A 3 months
- B 6 months
- C 9 months
- D 12 full months
Correct answer: D. Colorado requires every applicant under 18 to hold an instruction permit for 12 full months before a minor license can be issued. One full year of supervised practice — think of it as a permit birthday before your license.
2. Before you can upgrade a Colorado instruction permit to a minor driver license, how much supervised driving must appear on your signed log?
- A 40 hours, including 5 at night
- B 50 hours, including 10 at night
- C 60 hours, all in daylight
- D 25 hours, including 10 at night
Correct answer: B. Colorado requires a signed log showing at least 50 hours of supervised driving, and 10 of those hours must be driven at night. Think 50/10: five-zero hours total, one-zero after dark.
3. During your first year holding a Colorado minor driver license, between which hours is driving generally off-limits unless a qualifying exception applies?
- A Midnight to 5 a.m.
- B 10 p.m. to 6 a.m.
- C 11 p.m. to 4 a.m.
- D 9 p.m. to 5 a.m.
Correct answer: A. For the first year with a minor license, Colorado bans driving between midnight and 5 a.m. unless an exception applies, such as school activities, work, a medical emergency, or a parent in the vehicle.
4. You have held your Colorado minor driver license for three months. Which passenger may legally ride with you on a trip to the movies?
- A Your 16-year-old best friend
- B Two classmates from your school
- C Your 14-year-old sister
- D Your 19-year-old neighbor
Correct answer: C. During the first six months of a Colorado minor license, passengers under 21 are not allowed unless they are your siblings or there is a medical emergency. Family may ride; friends wait six months.
5. While you practice driving with a Colorado instruction permit, who must ride with you, and where must that person sit?
- A Any licensed adult, seated anywhere in the vehicle
- B A licensed driver 21 or older, seated in the front passenger seat
- C A licensed driver 18 or older, seated in the back seat
- D A certified driving instructor only, seated beside you
Correct answer: B. Colorado permit holders must be supervised by a driver who is at least 21, holds a valid license, and sits in the front passenger seat. Picture your coach riding shotgun on every practice trip.
6. You failed the Colorado Driving Knowledge Test this morning. What do the state's retake rules say?
- A You must wait 30 days before another attempt
- B You get only three lifetime attempts
- C You can take it as many times as needed, but only twice in one day.
- D Unlimited same-day attempts are allowed at no charge
Correct answer: C. The official Colorado @Home page says You can take it as many times as needed, but only twice in one day. Testers invent leftover one-and-done leftovers. Same-day attempts stop at twice.
7. Unless signs show otherwise, what speed limit applies on Colorado's narrow, winding mountain highways and blind curves?
- A 20 mph
- B 25 mph
- C 30 mph
- D 35 mph
Correct answer: A. Colorado law sets 20 mph as the lawful speed on narrow, winding mountain highways and on blind curves unless signs say otherwise. The state's tightest roads get its lowest default limit.
8. You are driving an open mountain highway in Colorado and see no speed limit signs. What is the lawful maximum speed?
- A 30 mph
- B 40 mph
- C 50 mph
- D 55 mph
Correct answer: B. Colorado's default limit on open mountain highways is 40 mph. Compare it to 20 mph for narrow, winding mountain roads: open equals forty, narrow and winding equals twenty.
9. You are caught speeding in a marked Colorado work zone. Compared with a normal ticket, what can happen to the fine?
- A It is waived for a first offense
- B It stays exactly the same
- C It increases by a flat $10
- D It can be doubled
Correct answer: D. Colorado doubles fines for failing to follow the posted speed limit in work and construction zones, because crews work just feet from moving traffic. Where the cones go up, the fine can double.
10. Colorado has a DWAI offense in addition to DUI. A BAC in which range lets the law infer you were driving while ability impaired?
- A Above 0.08%
- B Above 0.05% but below 0.08%
- C Any amount above zero
- D Above 0.10%
Correct answer: B. Colorado's DWAI offense means alcohol impaired you to the slightest degree; a BAC above 0.05% but below 0.08% permits that inference. You can be charged well before reaching the 0.08% DUI level.
11. Under Colorado law, what blood THC level allows a court to infer that you were driving under the influence of marijuana?
- A 5 nanograms per milliliter or more
- B 1 nanogram per milliliter or more
- C 10 nanograms per milliliter or more
- D No THC level is written into Colorado law
Correct answer: A. Colorado law creates a permissible inference of DUI when a driver's blood holds five or more nanograms of THC per milliliter. Remember the handful: five fingers, five nanograms.
12. You are over 21 and convicted of a first DWAI in Colorado. How many points are added to your driving record?
- A 4 points
- B 6 points
- C 8 points
- D 12 points
Correct answer: C. A first Colorado DWAI conviction adds eight points toward suspension, plus a $200 to $500 fine, possible jail time, and public service hours. Even slight impairment carries a heavy eight-point penalty.
13. On a steep, narrow Colorado mountain road with no room for two vehicles to pass, which driver must normally yield?
- A The driver going uphill must back up
- B Whoever entered the narrow stretch last
- C The larger vehicle, regardless of direction
- D The driver going downhill must back up to a wider spot
Correct answer: D. Colorado gives uphill traffic the right-of-way on steep, narrow roads; the downhill driver must back up to a wider spot or turnout because reversing uphill is harder to control. Gravity decides: downhill yields.
14. A school bus on an undivided Colorado road stops ahead with its red lights flashing. What must you do?
- A Slow to 10 mph and pass with care
- B Stop only if children are visible near the bus
- C Stop at least 20 feet away, from either direction, until the lights stop flashing
- D Stop only if you are traveling behind the bus
Correct answer: C. In Colorado you must stop at least 20 feet from a school bus with flashing red lights, from either direction, until the lights quit flashing. Only a median or other physical barrier exempts you.
15. A tow truck sits stopped on a Colorado highway with hazard lights flashing, and traffic prevents you from changing lanes. What does the Move Over Law require?
- A Slow to at least 20 mph below the posted limit
- B Sound your horn steadily as you pass
- C Come to a complete stop beside the vehicle
- D Keep your speed but turn on your headlights
Correct answer: A. Colorado's Move Over Law covers any stationary vehicle showing flashing hazard lights: change lanes away when safe, and otherwise slow to at least 20 mph below the posted limit. Move over or slow way down.
16. Who must you notify after a Colorado address or name change?
- A If you have a change to your address or name you must notify the Division of Motor Vehicles within 30 days.
- B The Federal Highway Administration
- C The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration
- D The US Department of Education
Correct answer: A. The official Colorado Driver Handbook says If you have a change to your address or name you must notify the Division of Motor Vehicles within 30 days. Testers invent leftover federal test-admin agencies. The Division of Motor Vehicles runs Colorado licensing.
17. You need to confirm a Colorado permit rule you saw on a practice site. What is the authoritative place to check?
- A The Division of Motor Vehicles (DMV) website or official Colorado driver handbook
- B A random social-media reel with no date
- C A forum post from 2014
- D Any paid app's splash screen
Correct answer: A. Practice sites, including this one, can be wrong or out of date. Colorado's DMV publishes the handbook and the current rule. If two sources disagree, the official Colorado page wins. Date-stamp what you read.
18. Who writes the official new-driver (graduated licensing) rules that apply on Colorado roads?
- A Colorado's Division of Motor Vehicles (DMV) and Colorado law
- B A national driving school franchise
- C Wikipedia editors
- D Your insurance agent's blog
Correct answer: A. GDL hours, night limits, and passenger rules are Colorado law, explained by the DMV. A school or insurer may summarize them, but they are not the source. Learn the Colorado version, not a generic US version.
19. What does the Colorado DMV officially call the @Home written exam?
- A @Home Driving Knowledge Tests
- B The federal interstate qualifying exam
- C The commercial learner permit skills pad
- D The motorcycle only road course
Correct answer: A. The official Colorado DMV page is titled @Home Driving Knowledge Tests. Testers invent leftover federal exam names. That is the official name of the written exam path.
20. Where is the official Colorado driver handbook published?
- A By the Division of Motor Vehicles (DMV) at its official handbook URL
- B Only as a paid paperback with no public copy
- C Exclusively inside a third-party app store listing
- D It is not published; testers invent questions
Correct answer: A. The DMV publishes the Colorado handbook for free. That book is the source the knowledge test is written from. Our questions are original study items grounded in those rules, not a substitute for reading the handbook.
21. What is the minimum age to apply for a learner's permit in Colorado?
- A 15
- B 14
- C 18
- D 21
Correct answer: A. Colorado lets you apply for a learner's permit at 15, according to the DMV. You still have to pass the knowledge and vision screens and meet any parent-consent rules. Age opens the door; it does not skip the test.
22. What correct score must a Colorado Driver’s License Written Examination require to pass?
- A must require a correct score of 80% or higher to pass
- B 50%
- C 40%
- D 99%
Correct answer: A. Official 1 CCR 204-30 Rule 8 says a Driver’s License Written Examination must require a correct score of 80% or higher to pass. Testers invent leftover 99% bars. Train above that 80% line.
23. For a driver 21 or older in Colorado, the per-se BAC limit is:
- A 0.08%
- B 0.12%
- C 0.15%
- D 0.20%
Correct answer: A. Colorado sets the adult per-se limit at 0.08%. That is a legal line, not a recommendation to drink up to it. Impairment starts earlier, and Colorado can still charge you for unsafe driving below the number.
24. Drivers under 21 in Colorado are over the youth alcohol limit at which level?
- A 0.02%
- B 0.08%
- C 0.10%
- D 0.15%
Correct answer: A. Colorado uses a zero-tolerance style rule for under-21 drivers: 0.02%. Adult limits do not apply to a teen permit holder. If you are under 21 in Colorado, treat alcohol and keys as incompatible.
25. Unless a sign posts another limit, the usual residential or city default in Colorado is:
- A 30 mph
- B 55 mph
- C 70 mph
- D 15 mph unless signed
Correct answer: A. Colorado's typical unposted residential / city default is 30 mph. School zones and work zones drop lower. If houses line the street and no sign argues, start at 30 mph and watch the next plaque.
26. What is the highest posted highway speed limit in Colorado?
- A 75 mph
- B 25 mph
- C 15 mph
- D 100 mph
Correct answer: A. Colorado's highest posted highway limit is 75 mph. Most stretches are lower, and work zones or weather can cut it further. Do not assume every freeway in Colorado is signed at the state maximum.
27. Does the DMV offer any online option for the Colorado Driving Knowledge Test (commonly called the written or permit test)?
- A Yes, in some cases — check eligibility on the official site
- B No, never, for any applicant
- C Only through a social-media quiz
- D Only if you already hold a CDL
Correct answer: A. Colorado does offer an online knowledge-test path for some applicants. Eligibility, ID rules, and camera rules change, so confirm them on the DMV site before you plan around it. An online test still means no handbook in your lap.
28. What Instruction Permit fee does the Colorado DMV publish (includes motorcycle)?
- A Instruction Permit (includes motorcycle) $20.00
- B There is never a fee in Colorado
- C $2 cash only, no card, nationwide
- D A $400 federal permit surcharge paid to NHTSA
Correct answer: A. The official Colorado DMV fee table lists Instruction Permit (includes motorcycle) $20.00. Testers invent leftover NHTSA surcharges. Confirm the live DMV fee page the day you go.
29. If you fail the Colorado Driving Knowledge Test, which retake rule matches the DMV page?
- A You can take it as many times as needed, but only twice in one day.
- B You are banned from driving in Colorado for life
- C You may retake it immediately with no limits, forever, for free, at any kiosk
- D The DMV never allows a second try
Correct answer: A. The official Colorado @Home Driving Knowledge Tests page says You can take it as many times as needed, but only twice in one day. Testers invent leftover unlimited same-day leftovers.
30. What does the DMV publish about languages for the Colorado knowledge test?
- A English and Spanish in state driver license offices and on the @Home online test, which can also be read aloud in either language; translators are allowed for the written test, and third-party driving schools may offer other languages.
- B English only in every office, with no exceptions listed
- C Latin and Esperanto only
- D The test is offered as a mime exam with no written language
Correct answer: A. Language options in Colorado: English and Spanish in state driver license offices and on the @Home online test, which can also be read aloud in either language; translators are allowed for the written test, and third-party driving schools may offer other languages. Ask at the office or on the DMV site when you schedule, because not every location stocks every language every day. Bring an interpreter only if the DMV says that is allowed.
31. When can a Colorado teen first get an instruction permit, depending on coursework?
- A 15 after a 30-hour driver-education course, 15½ after a 4-hour driver-awareness program, or 16 with no course
- B 15 on the birthday with no course
- C 14 years 9 months
- D 17 only
Correct answer: A. Colorado opens the permit at 15 after a 30-hour driver-education course, at 15½ after a 4-hour driver-awareness program or the 30-hour course, and at 16 with no course. All paths still require the Driving Knowledge Test and a licensed supervisor 21 or older in the front seat.
32. How long must a Colorado driver under 18 hold the instruction permit before a minor license?
- A 12 full months
- B 90 days
- C Six months
- D Until the 16th birthday with no minimum
Correct answer: A. Drivers under 18 must hold the permit for 12 full months and log 50 hours of supervised driving, 10 at night, before a minor license at 16. A six-month hold matches other states, not Colorado.
33. During the first six months of a Colorado minor license, how many passengers under 21 who are not siblings may ride?
- A None
- B One
- C Three
- D Any number after midnight
Correct answer: A. For the first year licensed, midnight-to-5:00 a.m. driving is barred and under-21 passengers phase in: none for six months, then one, with siblings exempt. Packing the car with friends in month two violates the first-stage cap.
34. How many times may you take Colorado's @Home Driving Knowledge Test in one day?
- A You can take it as many times as needed, but only twice in one day.
- B Unlimited
- C Once per week
- D Five times
Correct answer: A. The official Colorado @Home Driving Knowledge Tests page says You can take it as many times as needed, but only twice in one day. Testers invent leftover unlimited same-day leftovers.
35. After a failed Colorado Driving Knowledge Test, what written retest fee does the DMV publish?
- A Driving Knowledge (Written) Retest (CRS 42-2-114(2)(e)) $11.50
- B Nothing; every try is free
- C $40 each time
- D $2 cash only
Correct answer: A. The official Colorado DMV fee table lists Driving Knowledge (Written) Retest (CRS 42-2-114(2)(e)) $11.50. Testers invent leftover nationwide $2 leftovers. Confirm the live fee page the day you go.
36. Besides sunset to sunrise, when does Colorado law require headlights?
- A When visibility is less than 1,000 feet
- B Only in work zones
- C Only when a police officer points at you
- D Never in daylight, even in fog
Correct answer: A. Colorado law requires headlights from sunset to sunrise or when visibility is less than 1,000 feet. Daytime running lamps may not light the tail lamps the way a full headlight switch does. If you cannot see a thousand feet, turn them on.
37. How far from a stopped Colorado school bus with its lights on must other vehicles stop?
- A No less than 20 feet
- B Five feet
- C 10 feet
- D You may roll past if no child is visible
Correct answer: A. Colorado tells vehicles to stop no less than 20 feet from a school bus that is loading or unloading. Opposite-direction traffic on a divided highway with a barrier is treated differently. Twenty feet is the number on an ordinary road.
38. In a Colorado urban area, how far before a turn or lane change must your signal stay on?
- A 100 feet
- B 20 feet
- C A car length
- D Only after you start moving over
Correct answer: A. Colorado’s handbook says the turn signal is turned on continuously 100 feet before turning or changing lanes in urban areas, and 200 feet in other settings. Using a last-second flick in town is not enough warning.
39. How close to a fire hydrant may you park in Colorado?
- A No closer than 15 feet
- B No closer than 10 feet
- C Against the hydrant if hazards are on
- D 50 feet, same as a railroad
Correct answer: A. Colorado lists no parking within 15 feet of a fire hydrant. Other banned spots include intersections, tunnels, and ramps. Do not reuse a railroad or signal distance for the hydrant.
40. How are pedestrians who are blind usually identified in the Colorado handbook?
- A By a white cane and/or a guide dog, and they have the right-of-way
- B By an orange vest only
- C They must wait for a driver to honk
- D They lose the right-of-way if your light is green
Correct answer: A. Colorado says people with limited vision are easily recognized by the white cane they carry and/or by their guide dog, and pedestrians have the right-of-way. Slow, yield, and do not crowd them into the curb.
41. How far from an oncoming vehicle must you dim high beams in Colorado?
- A Before coming within 500 feet of any oncoming vehicle, including when fog lights are on with the high beams
- B At 50 feet only
- C Never; high beams stay on
- D Only inside city limits
Correct answer: A. Colorado says if you have high-beam lights with fog lights on, you must dim them before coming within 500 feet of any oncoming vehicle so the other driver is not blinded. Use low beams when following another vehicle as well.
42. A Colorado traffic signal shows a lighted red arrow. What does it mean?
- A Stop; you may not turn in the direction shown
- B Turn after a rolling pause
- C Treat it as a flashing yellow arrow
- D It is only a suggestion
Correct answer: A. Colorado says a lighted red arrow means you must stop and may not turn in the direction shown. Wait for a green arrow or other permission. A yellow arrow warns that a lighted red arrow is about to appear, so stop if you are not already in the intersection.
43. A Colorado signal shows a flashing yellow arrow for a left turn. What must you do?
- A Proceed with caution and yield to oncoming traffic and pedestrians; the turn is not protected
- B Turn immediately; oncoming traffic is stopped
- C Stop and wait for a green arrow only
- D U-turn instead
Correct answer: A. Colorado says a flashing yellow arrow means the driver turning left should proceed with caution and must yield to oncoming traffic and pedestrians. It is an unprotected turn, the opposite of a green arrow that holds opposing traffic.
44. A Colorado traffic signal is a flashing red light. What must you do?
- A Treat it as a STOP sign: stop, then go only after you can see it is safe
- B Slow and continue without stopping
- C Wait until it turns green
- D Use it as a protected left
Correct answer: A. Colorado says a flashing red light means the same as a STOP sign. Stop, then go only after visual checks show the way is clear. Testers swap this with flashing yellow, which is caution without a mandatory stop.
45. How does traffic move in a Colorado roundabout or traffic circle, and who yields?
- A Vehicles travel to the right around the island; entering drivers yield to traffic already circulating
- B Enter from the left at arterial speed
- C Stop in the island
- D Circulating traffic always stops for newcomers
Correct answer: A. Colorado describes a roundabout or traffic circle as a circular intersection. Vehicles travel to the right around the central island. Entering drivers yield so circulating traffic can keep moving. Do not cut across the island or stop in the circle except to avoid a crash.
46. A Colorado lane is closing ahead. How does the driver’s handbook say you should zipper-merge?
- A Keep using both lanes until just before the closure, then take turns filling the open lane
- B Merge as soon as you see the first warning sign, even a mile back
- C Block the ending lane so others cannot pass you
- D Stop in both lanes and wait for a flagger
Correct answer: A. Colorado’s zipper merge keeps traffic flowing by using both lanes equally until just before the point of closure. Then cars take turns filling the open lane. Drivers who wait until the lane ends are doing it correctly; cutting over early and blocking the ending lane is the mistake testers want.
47. A solid yellow line is on your left in Colorado and a bicyclist is ahead. May you cross the yellow to pass?
- A Yes, if you leave at least three feet and the oncoming travel lane is clear
- B Never; a solid yellow always forbids passing a bike
- C Only after 10 p.m.
- D Only if you honk twice
Correct answer: A. Colorado says no passing is permitted on solid yellow lines unless you are passing a bicyclist with a minimum of three feet of space and the oncoming travel lane is clear. That bike exception is the trap. Do not use it to pass a car.
48. Under normal conditions, what following-distance method does the Colorado handbook teach?
- A The three-second rule behind the vehicle ahead
- B One Colorado car length at any speed
- C Half a second on dry pavement
- D No gap is required outside Denver
Correct answer: A. Colorado’s three-second rule is the handbook’s normal-condition following gap. Watch the vehicle ahead pass a marker, then count one-thousand-one through one-thousand-three before you reach it. Increase the gap at night or in weather. Testers still sell a two-second Colorado myth. Count a full three.
49. You drive through a Diverging Diamond interchange (DDI) in Colorado. What does the handbook say the design does?
- A It crosses traffic to the opposite side of the road across the interchange so left turns onto the ramps can flow without stopping
- B It keeps every Colorado driver on the right the entire way
- C It replaces signals with a four-way stop
- D It bans left turns onto the freeway
Correct answer: A. Colorado describes a DDI as an interchange that crosses traffic to the opposite side of the road so vehicles have uninterrupted movements onto the freeway ramps. Left-turn movements, which are a typical challenge at a conventional diamond, become simpler. Testers assume Colorado never puts you on the left. Inside a DDI the markings will.
50. A Colorado bicyclist who is 15 or older reaches a stop sign at a clear intersection where the rider already has the right-of-way. What may the rider do?
- A Treat the stop sign as a yield sign, and treat a stop light as a stop sign
- B Roll every Colorado red light without slowing
- C Ignore stop signs only inside Denver
- D The 15-and-older rule applies only on bike paths
Correct answer: A. Colorado’s 2022 law lets bicyclists ages 15 and older treat stop signs as yield signs and stop lights as stop signs when the intersection is clear and the rider already has the right-of-way. Younger riders still make a full stop. Testers give every Colorado cyclist a free roll. The age cutoff and the clear-intersection condition are the trap.
51. When may a two-wheeled motorcycle filter past cars in the same Colorado lane?
- A When those cars and the vehicles in the next lanes are stopped, there is room, and the motorcycle stays at 15 mph or less
- B Anytime Colorado traffic is moving under 35 mph
- C Only on an I-25 shoulder
- D Never; Colorado bans every same-lane pass
Correct answer: A. Colorado lane filtering lets a two-wheeled motorcycle pass other motor vehicles in the same lane only when those vehicles are stopped, vehicles in the next lanes are also stopped, there is enough room, and the motorcycle stays at 15 mph or less. Testers treat a slow Colorado crawl as a filter. Moving traffic is not the filter case.
52. After you stop at a Colorado steady red, when may you turn left?
- A From a one-way street onto another one-way street, unless a sign prohibits it
- B From any Colorado two-way street after a yield
- C Never; Colorado allows only a right on red
- D On a Colorado red arrow with no extra sign
Correct answer: A. Colorado says that after stopping and yielding to pedestrians and other traffic, and if not prohibited by a sign, you may turn right on red. You may also turn left on red from a one-way street onto another one-way street unless a sign prohibits it. A red arrow means stop and do not turn in that direction. Testers invent a Colorado ban on every left on red. The one-way-to-one-way left is the handbook exception.
53. Where parallel parking is permitted in Colorado, how close to the curb must your vehicle sit?
- A Within 12 inches of the Colorado curb, or as close as possible to the outside edge of the shoulder
- B Within 18 inches, a number copied from other states
- C Flush against a Colorado hydrant
- D Three Colorado feet out if flashers are on
Correct answer: A. Colorado requires a parallel-parked vehicle to sit within 12 inches of the curb, or as close as possible to the outside edge of the shoulder, so traffic is not blocked. Testers copy an 18-inch number from other states. Twelve inches is the Colorado curb gap.
54. May you operate a motor vehicle in Colorado while wearing earphones?
- A No; Colorado forbids earphones that cover all or a portion of both ears, though a hearing aid or cochlear implant is allowed
- B Yes, if the Colorado volume stays low
- C Only on a Colorado interstate after 7 p.m.
- D Yes, if you use Colorado flashers
Correct answer: A. Colorado says you may not operate a motor vehicle while wearing earphones. Earphones include any device or headset that covers all or a portion of both ears. Hearing aids, cochlear implants, assistive listening devices, speakers built into protective headgear, and a device that covers only one ear are carved out. Testers cover both Colorado ears. One ear open unless it is a hearing aid.
55. You are parked on a Colorado street and about to open your door. Which hand does the handbook tell you to use?
- A The hand closest to the center of the Colorado vehicle, a habit commonly called the Dutch Reach
- B The near Colorado handle after a mirror glance only
- C Kick the Colorado door if the street looks empty
- D Open both Colorado doors at once
Correct answer: A. Colorado tells drivers parked on the street to check to the sides and rear for bicyclists before opening a door, and to use the hand closest to the center of the vehicle — a behavior commonly known as the Dutch Reach. That turn lets you see a rider in the door zone. Testers pop the near Colorado handle after a mirror glance. The far-hand reach is the study method.
56. A fire apparatus is answering a fire alarm on a Colorado street. How close may other drivers follow, and where may they park?
- A No closer than 500 feet unless on official Colorado business, and do not drive into or park in the block where that apparatus has stopped
- B A Colorado car-length if flashers are on
- C Two hundred Colorado feet, copied from a Georgia rule
- D Anywhere a Colorado hydrant is clear
Correct answer: A. Colorado Revised Statute 42-4-1403 says a driver other than one on official business shall not follow fire apparatus traveling in response to a fire alarm closer than 500 feet, or drive into or park in the block where that apparatus has stopped. Testers invent a 200-foot Colorado follow copied from other states. Five hundred feet in motion and stay out of that block.
57. How close to a public or private driveway may you stand or park on a Colorado street?
- A No closer than five feet of that Colorado public or private driveway
- B A Colorado mirror’s width if flashers are on
- C Fifteen feet, the Colorado hydrant number reused here
- D Only after a Colorado officer waves
Correct answer: A. Colorado Revised Statute 42-4-1204 forbids standing or parking within five feet of a public or private driveway. Testers reuse the 15-foot Colorado hydrant number at every driveway lip. Five feet is the Colorado driveway gap, separate from the 12-inch curb extra.
58. How close to a Colorado fire-station driveway may you stand or park?
- A No closer than 20 feet on the same Colorado side, or 75 feet on the opposite side when that entrance is properly signposted
- B A Colorado hydrant’s 15 feet on both sides
- C Only the Colorado driveway itself is restricted
- D Seventy-five Colorado feet on every unmarked street
Correct answer: A. Colorado Revised Statute 42-4-1204 forbids standing or parking within 20 feet of a fire-station driveway, or on the opposite side within 75 feet of that entrance when it is properly signposted. Testers copy a flat 75-foot Colorado buffer with no sign. Twenty and seventy-five keep the apparatus path clear, separate from the five-foot driveway extra.
59. How close to a flashing beacon, signal, stop sign, or yield sign at the side of a Colorado roadway may you stand or park?
- A No closer than 30 feet upon the approach to that Colorado roadside control
- B A Colorado hydrant’s 15 feet reused here
- C Five feet, the Colorado driveway number reused here
- D Only after a Colorado officer waves
