Many motorists spend a lot of time comparing car insurance prices online but most do not consider any of the other factors that could reduce the future cost of their insurance premiums. When it is time to renew your insurance you may compare insurers in order to find a cheaper quote. Next year you get to do it all over again.
What if there were things that you could do now so that it reduces your future premiums for years to come. One thing many motorists hardly ever consider doing is taking a Pass Plus course. Taking a Pass Plus driving course is designed to improve your driving skills and make you a safer driver. Insurers like safer drivers as they are less likely to make a claim and therefore many offer you a discount for having taken the course.
The amount of discount varies widely and some insurers do not even recognise the government run course at all. You could however save up to a third on the cost of your premiums.
Generally you should not expect to pay any more than about £150. You may be eligible for a grant and you can check with your local authority to see if you do.
You will need to find an approved driving instructor (ADI) in your area who is registered with the DSA. It is much like booking a driving instructor when you first learned to drive.
Young drivers will benefit most from taking Pass Plus as they have the most to gain in terms of car insurance discounts. Young drivers will also have less driving experience and so would benefit by reducing their risk of being involved in a road traffic accident.
Drivers looking for daily car insurance specifically because of the cost of an annual insurance policy or if you are looking for car insurance under 25 have the most to gain from taking this course. It may only take you as little as 6 hours of training in order to get your Pass Plus certificate that can lead to a lifetime discount on your car insurance.
