The government, driving standards agency and insurers, backs pass plus.
It is designed to make newly qualified drivers become better drivers and gives you a number of other
benefits, such as cheaper insurance.
The course consists of 6 specially designed training sessions to follow on from a successful practical
test.
 Driving in town
Driving in all weathers
Out of town driving & rural roads
Night driving
On Dual carriage ways
Motorways
You can take the pass plus up to a year after passing your practical driving test.
There is no further test to take, when your driving instructor is satisfied with your performance, you
will receive a certificate from the Driving Standards Agency.
Motor insurers (currently representing 63% of the UK private car market) that support the scheme will
give you a one years no claims bonus for comprehensive, third party fire and theft, and third party
policies as soon as you insure your own car.

This can be deferred for up to two years, if you currently drive under someone else’s policy, so long
as you have not made any claims.
A pass plus course through Wheelers Driving School will cost from £144.00 with 6 hours tuition split
into either 2x3hrs or 3x2hrs sessions.
