Answer 1

I’m hoping to do my Pass Plus with the DI that’s teaching me to drive at the moment. When I pass my test, hopefully.

Ask around for recommendations or phone around?

Answer 2

bypass Plus is an effective theory, even if it has flaws. One is that the six hours assumes each and every man or woman learns on an analogous %. - it truly is for sure not the case! instructors are reluctant to inform students they have not made the grade and want more beneficial classes - students might want to get disenchanted at this, believing they are being ripped off. also, it truly is puzzling to tutor nighttime driving interior the summer because classes might want to should be very previous due, and not user-friendly to tutor undesirable climate driving on a surprising sunny day! So some modules are only said - back, not passable. There are some issues that are major to benefit, in spite of the reality that, alongside with highway driving that you will be able to't learn with a provisional licence. So it truly is accessible for that - even if there is not something to offer up you taking a highway lesson when you've handed your attempt, no matter if you're taking bypass Plus or not.

Answer 3

The money that you will save by doing the pass plus is about the same as 1 years no-claims discount. The pass plus itself will cost about the same as the amount you save on the insurance (unless you use BSM then it will cost a lot more).
So in terms of saving money it is a bit pointless but may help you improve your driving skills.
Saying that however, you only start to learn how to drive after you've passed your test.

Answer 4

Yes. Do Pass Plus. It will save you loads of money, and increase your driving skills.

Not all instructors are registered to teach pass plus, so it would be a question of ringing round to find out. The DSA database of Pass Plus instructors is no longer active, so ring around or ask someone to recommend an instructor to you.

Answer 5

Hi, Pass plus can be completed up to 2 years after you pass your test & most insurers will give you a 30% discount off your first insurance policy subject to you having this certificate.
(30% is the equivalent to 1 years no claims bonus)
If your looking for a cheap quote try www.expressinsurance.co.uk, they do specialise in new drivers & accept pass plus.
Good luck

Answer 6

I'm 40, with 23 years of multi-vehicle, (including some really fast cars) high-mileage, clean-licence, accident-free driving behind me, in many countries, on roads, rally stages, and race-tracks. MY driving is fantastic. Yours has let you pass your basic test. I don't want to worry you, but I still have lessons to learn, and many of my friends who 'passed first time' went on to have accidents soon thereafter. And some of them aren't here today, either. So do your pass-plus, if you're so good, there will be nothing bad for the instructor to criticise. And when they do correct you, they are only doing it to try to keep you, and others, alive.

Enjoy your driving. Be safe. Never get cocky.

Answer 7

Ask around your friends, see if they can recommend anyone, change instructors if you are not happy, it is your money. Try www.dsa.gov for pass plus registered instructors.
Do the course with a positive attitude, everyone can improve their driving skills no matter how good a driver they may consider themselves to be. good luck

Answer 8

Taking your pass plus is excellent for experience however it is unlikely you will save any money on insurance. After much research for my son we found swiftcover.com to be very competitive.

Answer 9

Suck up and deal with the instructor. The goal is to pass and lower your insurance rates, not to become mates with the instructor or even admit that he's human.

Answer 10

Its just like a driving lesson but they teach you what to do in situations ie fog

I did mine and all of the situations happened fog and ice.
