• 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.

In exceptional circumstances, if a module can't be done on the road it will be covered in a theory session.

Don’t worry if you haven’t got a car at the moment, you may be able to defer the discount for up to two years. Again, check with your insurance company.
