PASS PLUS

Keys
PASS PLUS is a training scheme for new drivers, with six modules specially designed by the Driving Standards Agency (DSA), with the help of insurers and the driving instruction industry. It's available through want2PASS and gives you extra skills, experience, confidence and safety, as well as usually entitling you to lower insurance premiums.

What PASS PLUS Gives 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.
Build on your existing skills and knowledge
It can take years to become a skilled driver. PASS PLUS helps get you there by speeding up the learning process under expert tuition.
Reduce your risk of being in a road crash.
The course will help boost your awareness of all kinds of hazards and help you learn how to anticipate, plan for and deal with them safely.
Save money on car insurance premiums
Fees for the PASS PLUS course with want2PASS are usually more than offset by the money you save on your first year’s insurance premium. When you have successfully completed the course, many insurers give you a ‘free’ year’s no-claims discount up front.
The amount you save will depend on the company you choose, you may even save more than you paid for the course.
Boost your confidence
If you feel nervous driving on your own, the PASS PLUS training can help you become more confident on the roads.

PASS PLUS consists of six practical modules, detailed below. You can take it at any time within the first 12 month of passing your test.
