Pass Plus Coursein London
Auto-Drive Driving School runs the Pass Plus course for newly qualified drivers across Camden, North and Central London, building real-world experience after your test.
About our pass plus course
Pass Plus is a nationally recognised post-test training programme that covers six areas of driving not fully tested in the standard practical test including town driving, rural roads, dual carriageways, motorways, driving in difficult weather, and night driving. Completing Pass Plus may also reduce your car insurance premium.
Ideal for: Newly qualified drivers who want to gain real-world experience and potentially lower their insurance costs.
Pass Plus is a DVSA scheme. It is practical training rather than a test: you are assessed as you go, and when you have reached the required standard in every module you receive a Pass Plus certificate. It is designed for the first year after passing, when new drivers are most at risk, but you can take it at any time.
For drivers who learned in central London, Pass Plus is a chance to experience roads they rarely meet in the city: fast country lanes, long dual carriageways and motorways, often in the dark or the rain.
Each module is planned around you. If you already feel at home on fast roads but have hardly driven at night, more of the time goes on night driving; if country lanes are the worry, we head out of town. The aim is the same throughout: to turn a new licence into real, all-round experience while an instructor is still beside you.

What to plan before you book
-
You need a full licence
Pass Plus is for drivers who have passed their practical test. You can take it at any time, but it is aimed at the first year after passing.
-
Allow at least six hours
The course takes at least six hours. Rural, motorway and night modules need longer drives out of central London, so plan for a few longer sessions.
-
Check your insurer
Not every insurer offers a Pass Plus discount. Ask yours, or ask when comparing quotes, before you book if the discount matters to you.
