The @Home Driving Knowledge testing application uses photo captures to ensure the person taking the test is the person who signed up to take the test. Tests cannot begin until a photo is taken, and photos will be taken at random during the @Home Driving Knowledge Test to stop others from providing information or other resources. During a customer’s follow up appointment, DMV licensing technicians will cross reference images taken during the @Home Driving Knowledge Test to prevent fraud. This ensures the person who took the test is the one in front of the licensing technician getting their credentials processed.


Additionally, test-takers younger than 19 will need an adult older than 19 to be a proxy for the test. Test results will also be emailed to the proxy.
 

You should review the Colorado Driver Handbook and use the Colorado Driver Handbook Practice Quiz.
