Pass Plus

Congratulations!

You've passed your driving test - now you can drive on your own at last.  But it doesn't stop there.  This is just the end of the beginning...!

Getting your own car will give you the independence you need.  But for a new driver, the cost of insurance can be sky high.

And why is this?

Because statistics show that new drivers are more likely to have an accident in their first two years of passing their test than at any other time in their driving career.

It's not the age that matters - it's basically due to a lack of driving experience (see modules below).

And this is where Pass Plus comes in!

By deciding to take part in the pass plus scheme you're showing that you want to develop the attitude and skills that are essential for safe driving for life.

You would not be right in thinking that once you have passed your test and gained your driving licence you are a driver with nothing more to learn.

As a qualified driver, your learning never stops.  

Also, when you successfully complete Pass Plus you will usually qualify for a substantial discount on your car insurance.

Remember this: there is no test! Once you have satisfied your instructor and successfully completed the course you will be issued with a certificate of completion.

What is Pass Plus?

Pass Plus consists of several modules. These are:

Town driving
Driving in town can be daunting: rush hour traffic, complicated junctions and traffic systems... learn the skills to deal with all these and more.

All-weather driving
Rain, fog, bright sunshine, snow and ice: find out how to drive safely in all the different weather conditions you'll face on the road.

Driving out of town
Country roads can harbour all kinds of hazards, from sharp bends and potholes to farm vehicles and animals in the road.

Night driving
Dealing with dazzle, judging distance and speed, using your lights correctly - these are just some of the areas covered.

Driving on dual carriageways
To drive safely on fast, multi-lane roads you'll need all your skills of observation, concentration, anticipation and lane discipline.

Driving on Motorways
Motorways are like no other roads: learn how to drive on them safely and correctly under expert supervision.
