Pass Plus Driver Training

Pass Plus is a 6 hour post driving test course designed to help pupils gain confidence in their driving, and in conditions that maybe they were not able to encounter during their lessons.

It also includes a very comprehensive Motorway lesson which covers most types of Motorway conditions that may be encountered in the UK.

Every pupil will receive a progress record and a training report form.

All Pass Plus training must be taken after passing your test within one year, and is mainly aimed at new drivers after passing their test. Your Pass Plus may be kept on hold for two years.

Why should I bother passing this?

As the pupil has completed six hours of training the progress record and training report will be sent to the DSA. The DSA will send the Pass Plus certificate to the student along with details of motor insurance companies who recognize a Pass Plus course for discounted car insurance.
