PASS PLUS
Pass Plus is designed to help you become a better driver and is especially useful for new drivers. You can also get intensive training to help you become a safer drive before you pass your test.
Pass Plus is a training course for newly qualified drivers. It was introduced by the Government in 1999.
​
Pass Plus is designed to teach new drivers additional skills and safer driving. It takes between six and nine hours and costs £160.
​
At the end of the course, you’ll be able to apply for a Driver and Vehicle Standard Agency (DVSA) certificate, which you’ll need if you want to apply for a discount on your car insurance. But don’t worry, we can deal with all of this for you so you don’t have to!
