Pass Plus

PASS PLUS is a training scheme for new drivers. It's much more than just a few extra lessons as it provides the additional driver training for newly qualified drivers to give you more advanced driver training. This course has been specially designed by the Driving Standards Agency (DSA) with the help of insurers and the driving instruction industry, to help you 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 won't have faced before and build on your existing skills and knowledge. This will help you to become a safer driver.

You can complete this course any time within a 12 month period of successfully passing your Test. A minimum of six hourly lessons are required to complete the training. Once you have successfully completed the course the DSA will send you a certificate, which you should present to your Insurance Company to obtain the appropriate discounts.

When you have successfully completed the course, you are advised to check available discounts offered by the insurance companies taking part in the scheme. The amount you save will depend on the company you choose, you may even save more than you paid for the course.

PASS PLUS consists of six practical modules which cover:

Module 1 Town Driving
Module 2 All Weather Driving
Module 3 Driving Out of Town
Module 4 Night Driving
Module 5 Driving on Dual Carriageways
Module 6 Driving on Motorways

There is no test at the end of it – your driving will be continually assessed and you must successfully complete all the modules in the course.

If you passed your test more than a year ago you should check that you’ll be eligible for the discounts on offer from your insurance company before you take the course.
