pass plus

Pass Plus is a practical training course that takes at least 6 hours and is for drivers to improve their skills and drive more safely.

It can be taken at any time although it should be most useful to new drivers in the year after passing their test.

You’ll need a Pass Plus registered approved driving instructor (ADI) to teach you. All JDT instructors are registered.

It may help you get a car insurance discount if you successfully complete the course.

Apply for a Pass Plus certificate

You’ll get a training report form from JDT instructor when you’ve reached the required standard in all modules. You and JDT instructor will sign the form. And send it to DVSA Pass Plus team to apply for your certificate.

Local councils offering discounts

Some local council can offer discounts off the full Pass Plus training costs

Contact your borough, town, city or county council if they are listed to see if they can help you with the cost of your training. You must live in the council’s area to be eligible for the discount.

Car insurance discounts

Once you’ve completed Pass Plus you may be able to get a car insurance discount. You’ll need your Pass Plus certificate.

Check with insurers that you can still get a discount if you passed your practical driving test more than a year ago.

The amount of discount depends on the insurance company. Not all insurers offer Pass Plus discounts.

You might be able to put the discount on hold for up to 2 years if you do not have a car at the moment - check with the insurance company first.
