In looking at an article by the Colorado Legal Defense Group, a minor is allowed to drive or obtain a driver’s permit in Colorado under the following conditions:
Even if a child is mature and responsible, they are required to go through the procedures to get an instruction permit or driver’s license before they can safely operate a vehicle. Minors in Colorado must be over the age of 15 before they can get a Colorado Instruction Permit. Minors under the age of 16 have to attend and complete a state-approved 30-hour Driver Education Class, pass the written test, show identifying documents and proof of physical Colorado address. A parent or guardian must also complete an Affidavit of Liability and Guardianship (DR2460).
