What The Test Never Asked You To Do

The practical test lasts about forty minutes and stays close to Cowley. It never takes you on a motorway, never happens in the dark, and rarely happens in bad weather. Pass Plus fills in those gaps while you still have an instructor beside you.

  • AYour first motorway, supervisedJoining, lane discipline, overtaking and leaving, done on the M40 in a dual controlled car rather than alone on a Friday afternoon.
  • BDriving in the darkHeadlight use, glare from oncoming traffic, judging speed and distance when the reference points you rely on have disappeared.
  • CWeather you cannot practise on demandRain, spray, fog and ice change stopping distances and grip. We cover the technique whatever the sky is doing on the day.
  • DA certificate insurers recogniseComplete all six modules and DVSA issues a Pass Plus certificate. Some insurers offer a discount for it, though not all do, so check with yours before you book.

The six modules

Set by DVSA, the same six wherever you take the course. You are assessed throughout and there is no test at the end.

  • Town driving, traffic, junctions and busy roundabouts
  • All weather driving and how grip and visibility change
  • Rural roads, blind bends, mud, horses and farm traffic
  • Night driving and headlight use
  • Dual carriageways, joining, lane choice and overtaking
  • Motorway driving on the M40

1

Get in touch

Call, email or book online. Tell us whether you want manual or automatic and roughly when you passed.

Drive all six modules

Town, weather, rural, night, dual carriageway and the M40 motorway run. Your instructor assesses you as you go, so there is no test at the end.

4

Where The Six Hours Actually Happen

Oxford is unusually good for Pass Plus. Motorway, dual carriageway, tight medieval city streets and proper country lanes all sit within twenty minutes of each other.

M40 near Wheatley

Wheatley · OX33

The motorway module. Slip road, merging, lane discipline, overtaking and leaving, at motorway speeds with dual controls in the car.

A34 at Botley

Botley · OX2

The dual carriageway module. Fast joining, lane choice and the short, busy slips that catch new drivers out.

Oxford ring road and Headington

Headington · OX3

Multi lane roundabouts, bus lanes and heavy hospital traffic. Good for observation and lane planning under pressure.

Oxford city centre

Central Oxford · OX1

The town module. Narrow streets, cyclists, buses, pedestrians and one way systems, all at once.

Lanes towards Stanton St John

East of Oxford · OX33

The rural module. Blind bends, no white lines, mud on the road and the occasional tractor or horse.

Cowley and Blackbird Leys

East Oxford · OX4

Night driving on lit residential roads before moving to darker outskirts. Also where the Cowley test centre routes run.

We pick up across Oxford Headington, Cowley, Iffley, Jericho, Summertown, Botley, Marston, Littlemore, Blackbird Leys, Wolvercote and Kidlington. We also cover Wheatley, Abingdon and Bicester on our out of area rate.
What we offer
Everything else we do in Oxford

Not Passed Yet? Start Here Instead

Pass Plus is for drivers who already hold a full licence. If you are still learning, or you have a licence but have not driven in years, one of these will suit you better.

βš™

Automatic lessons

Two pedals, no clutch and no stalling. The most popular choice in Oxford, especially for city driving.

πŸš—

Manual lessons

A manual licence lets you drive both. Worth it if you may need a work van or a hire car abroad.

⚑

Intensive courses

Passed your theory and want to get on with it? Lessons packed into days rather than spread over months.

πŸ”„

Refresher lessons

You have the licence but not the confidence. Book a couple of hours and get it back without starting over.

πŸŽ“

Student and NHS rates

Discounted blocks for Oxford students and NHS staff, with pickup from campus or the JR and Churchill.

Frequently asked questions

Pass Plus: Your Questions Answered

What is Pass Plus?
Pass Plus is a practical training course set by DVSA for drivers who have already passed their test. It takes at least six hours and covers six modules: town driving, all weather driving, rural roads, night driving, dual carriageways and motorways. It can be taken at any time, although it is most useful in the year after you pass.
How much does Pass Plus cost in Oxford?
Our Pass Plus course is £300 for the full six hours across our Oxford area, and the DVSA certificate is included in that price. Wheatley, Abingdon and Bicester run on our out of area rate, so please call 01865 763458 for the price if you are picking up from there.
Is there a test at the end of Pass Plus?
No. There is no test. Your instructor assesses you throughout the course, and to complete it you need to reach the required standard in all six modules.
Will Pass Plus reduce my car insurance?
It may. Some insurers offer a discount to drivers who hold a Pass Plus certificate, but not all of them do, and the size of any discount varies. We would suggest checking with your own insurer before you book so you know where you stand.
Do you do the motorway module for real?
Yes. We drive the motorway module on the M40 near Wheatley. DVSA does allow some modules to be covered as theory where local conditions make practical driving impossible, but Oxford has a motorway on its doorstep, so we use it.
How do I get my Pass Plus certificate?
When you have reached the required standard in all six modules, your instructor gives you a training report form. You and your instructor both sign it, then you send it to Pass Plus, DVSA, 1 Unity Square, Nottingham, NG2 1AY. The certificate is posted to you and should arrive within two weeks.
Can I take Pass Plus in an automatic car?
Yes. We run Pass Plus in both manual and automatic. Just tell us which you want when you book and we will allocate the right instructor.
How soon after passing should I do Pass Plus?
You can take it at any time, but it is designed to be most useful in the year after you pass, while the habits from your lessons are still fresh. If you have not driven much since passing, it is worth booking a refresher session first so the six hours are spent on new skills rather than revision.
