Pass Plus
Pass Plus in Loughborough & Melton Mowbray
Pass Plus
This is a voluntary scheme designed by the DSA to develop the skills and knowledge of newly qualified drivers and broaden their driving experience.
Who Does It Benefit?
- Newly qualified car drivers - safer driving and discounted motor insurance
- Instructors - opportunity to help newly qualified drivers develop their skills and knowledge
- Insurers - fewer claims and less expenditure
- The general public - safer roads
Pass Plus is a six-module training syllabus. Modules will not take the same amount of time to cover, but each course must consist of a minimum of six hours training, five and a half of which must be practical in-car driving sessions.
This does not necessarily mean six sessions - the number of sessions required will depend on the ability and progress of the individual pupil.
What is The Aim of Pass Plus?
It enables the new driver to:
- Develop their existing skills
- Acquire the new skills and knowledge that make up positive driving
- Further develop anticipation skills, plan for and deal with hazards safely
- Understand how to reduce their risk of having a crash
- Mintain a courteous and considerate attitude to other road users
If a new driver feels nervous driving on their own, PASS PLUS can also help to boost their confidence.
What Are The 6 Modules?
- Module 1: Introduction (Part 1) Explanation of the PASS PLUS
- Module 1: Town Driving (Part 2)
- Module 2: All-weather driving
- Module 3: Out of town driving and rural roads
- Module 4: Night Driving
- Module 5: Dual Carriageways
- Module 6: Motorways
