Pass Plus Course

Pass plus course logo for new driversTaking a Pass Plus course can save you up to 35% on your driving insurance!

Pass Plus is a course designed by the DSA to help the new driver to develop a higher level of driving than the ordinary 'L' test. New drivers are most vulnerable in their first year of driving and they account for over 20% of all road accidents.

The course gives you a better grounding in driving along dual carriageways and motorways, night-time driving, town driving, country driving, all weather driving, and driving theory, which ultimately results in better confidence and ability to drive.

The Pass Plus course also covers:

  • Making effective observations
  • Assessing road/traffic conditions
  • Decision making
  • Driver attitude
  • Consideration for other road users.


This course is highly recommended because you will have the satisfaction of knowing that you are more than just a new driver. You will also receive a certificate from the DSA which will entitle you to receive a discount of up to 35% off your motor insurance, and with 69% of insurers taking part in the scheme it's a worthy investment.
