Full research notes, including what could not be confirmed

Colorado Driver Handbook (DR 2337, Jan 2025 ed.), PDF re-fetched directly from https://dmv.colorado.gov/sites/dmv/files/documents/DR_2337_Jan2025.pdf on 2026-08-20 (the live, current handbook linked from dmv.colorado.gov's own driver-education page) and Colorado Revised Statutes (C.R.S., via a law.justia.com mirror, current as of 8/7/2024 for the points statute, C.R.S. §42-2-127) — researched and verified 2026-08-18/19 per docs/batch4-research.md's Colorado section, re-verified 2026-08-20 against the full re-fetched handbook text. Exam format: the Handbook confirms a single unified knowledge test covering signs, DUI, driving rules, safety rules, and legal items (no separate sign-recognition section, signCount: 0); the state's official @Home online testing platform (coathometesting.com) additionally confirms a 60-minute time limit and a $6.50 per-attempt fee — but no official source, including the freshly re-checked 2025 Handbook itself, publishes an exact question count or passing percentage. This module uses ruleCount: 30 and rulePassPct: 0.8 as a documented ESTIMATE, not a confirmed figure; re-verify against dmv.colorado.gov before treating it as authoritative. Child-passenger-safety content (childsafety category, r109-r113) was re-verified word-for-word against the freshly re-fetched 2025 Handbook this session and is CONFIRMED CURRENT and correct as written (under-2-and-under-40lb rear-facing; under-2-and-40lb+ rear- or forward-facing; 2-to-under-4 at 20lb+ rear- or forward-facing; 4-to-under-9 at 40lb+ restraint/booster; 9-18 seat belt or restraint) — these are genuine, current car-seat law brackets, not meta-questions about the document, and the questions' "per the Colorado Handbook" phrasing is a source citation, not the substance being tested. The r12 stopping-distance figure ("about 200 feet from 55 mph") was also re-confirmed verbatim against the fresh Handbook text ("a lightweight passenger car traveling 55 mph can stop in about 200 feet"). Known gaps deliberately NOT invented: statewide curb-color meanings (governed by local ordinance, not state law); Colorado funeral-procession right-of-way law (checked thoroughly, likely does not exist); exact truck/bus no-zone footage figures (described only qualitatively in the Handbook); a distinct penalty figure for child-car-seat violations beyond the general class B infraction description. Upcoming law change worth noting for future re-verification: HB24-1021 takes effect Jan 1, 2027 and will make the 30-hour driver-ed course mandatory for all applicants age 15-17 (closing gaps in the current age-tiered system) — this module uses the pre-2027 rules still in effect as of the 2026-08-20 verification date. Re-verify periodically, as Handbook content, fees, and thresholds change over time.
