Pass Plus Information

Look at the Video in the sidebar for further information.

Pass Plus is a training course for newly qualified drivers specially designed by the Driving Standards Agency along with the help of insurers and the driving instruction industry.

What are the benefits of a pass plus course with me?

Gain valuable driving experience safely - you will be taught how to deal with a wide range of road and traffic situations, many of which you probably have not faced before.
Build on your own existing skills and knowledge - it can take years to become a skilled driver. PASS PLUS helps you get there by speeding up the learning process under expert tuition.
Reduce the risk of being in a road crash - the course will help boost your awareness of all kinds of hazards and help you learn how to anticipate, plan for and deal with them safely.
Save money on car insurance premiums - When you have successfully completed the course, you are advised to check available discounts offered by insurance companies taking part in the scheme. You may even save more money than you paid for the course.
Boost your confidence - if you feel nervous driving on the roads on your own, the PASS PLUS training course will help you to become more confident on the roads, giving peace of mind to loved ones.
Pass Plus - consist of six practical modules which cover driving in town, in all weathers, on rural roads, on motorways and can be taken any time within the first 12 months of passing your test.
There is no test at the end of the course - your driving is continually assessed and you must complete all the modules in the course to an achieved or exceeded standard.
Achieved - successfully reached the standard required for each of the modules
Exceeded - exceeded the required standard for each of the competencies.
