Pass Plus comprises a 6 - module training syllabus designed by the DSA to accelerate the acquisition of driving experience and thus improve the safety of new drivers. Modules will not all take the same amount of time to cover, but each course must consist of a minimum of 6 hours tuition, 5 of which are practical in-car sessions.
PASS PLUS offers new drivers financial incentives to undertake further training. Participating insurance companies will recognise drivers who successfully complete the training course through discounts on their car insurance premiums.

- Its primary aim is to develop the attitudes and skills that are essential for safe driving.
- The course should help new drivers to appreciate the satisfaction to be gained from driving well.
