Colorado's GDL Laws?
GDL stands for Graduated Driver Licensing-laws designed to help you develop important driving skills gradually while adhering to important restrictions in your first years of driving. GDL laws are designed with your safety in mind.
GDL affects the steps required to get your license, and also the specific restrictions you'll need to obey until you turn 18. Passenger restrictions, cell phone bans, and curfew are just a few examples of GDL laws.
