(Have a question not on this list? E-mail Brian Bowden at bbowden@rmcbmwcca.org)

Q. Must I be a member of BMW CCA to participate in Car Control Clinic?
A. Yes.  This is a requirement of the insurance provider.

Q. How old do drivers have to be to drive in the Car Control Clinic?
A. 16 with a valid driver's license.  In Colorado, the required minor driver's license is called a "minor instruction permit".  Neither the Driver Education Permit nor the Driver Awareness Permit is sufficient for the Car Control Clinic, as these permits require the adult who signed the DR2450 form to be in the car with the minor driver at all times. We will not make any exceptions to this requirement, so please don't even ask us to do so! Minors will need to bring the waiver form signed by both parents or guardians.
