Pass Plus
The Pass Plus Scheme
Pass Plus is an established training course aimed at new drivers. It was designed by the Driving Standards Agency (DSA) with the help of insurers and the driving instruction industry.
Statistics show that new drivers are more likely to have an accident within the first two years after passing their test than at any other time during their driving career, this is due to lack of driving experience: it’s not because of your age. The main factor is simply a lack of experience and the fact that as a newly qualified driver you are more vulnerable than you may realize.
Pass Plus builds on your skills and knowledge. It will teach you how to anticipate, plan for and deal with all kinds of hazards, to help you become a more confident driver. You can take a Pass Plus course at any time, but it’s mainly aimed at new drivers in the first year after passing their test. Once you have successfully completed the course you will usually qualify for a motor insurance discount and in some cases you may find that this will often outweigh the cost of the scheme.
