Congratulations !!!
 

Pass Plus and Advanced Driving.

  • You’ve passed your driving test - now you can drive on your own at last. Getting your own car will give you the independence you need. For a new driver, the cost of insurance can be sky high.

    And the reason for this? Statistics show that new drivers are more likely to have an accident in the first two years of passing their test than at any other time in their driving career.

    Age doesn’t matter – it’s basically down to a lack of driving experience.

    That’s where PASS PLUS comes in!

What next then?, How do i get cheaper insurance?

  • PASS PLUS is a training scheme for new drivers. It's much more than just a few extra lessons. This specially designed course by the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA), with the help of insurers and the driving instruction industry,:-

  • Helps 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
     
    Naturally, you will have to pay for the course, the current charge is £220.00 (If you have been a student of mine and pass your test with me I will offer a loyalty discount of £20.00). Bear in mind too that the fee covers the minimum of six hours,  which need to be taken after passing your test and is a requirement to obtain your certificate. If more sessions are needed for you to successfully complete the course, this may add to the cost.

    When you have successfully completed the course, you are advised to check available discounts offered by the insurance companies taking part in the scheme. 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 and give peace of mind to your loved ones, PASS PLUS consists of six practical modules which cover driving in town, in all weathers, on rural roads, at night, on dual carriageways and on motorways.

    You can take it at any time within the first 12 month of passing your test. There is no test at the end of it – your driving will be continually assessed and you must successfully complete all the modules in the course to an achieved or exceeded standard:
  • achieved – successfully reached the standard required for each of the competencies
  • exceeded – exceeded the required standard for each of the competencies

    • In exceptional circumstances, if a module can't be done on the road it will be covered in a theory session. The highest level you can reach is 'achieved' as you've not been able to demonstrate the relevant practical skills.

    If you passed your test more than a year ago you should check that you’ll be eligible for the discounts on offer from your insurance company before you take the course.
