Pass Plus is a recognised scheme which has been developed to help people who have passed their practical test gain further experience, with the tuition and supervision of a Pass Plus registered instructor. With RICHARDS SCHOOL OF MOTORING, you will be able to build on the skills you have already gained whilst learning to drive, and better prepares you for when driving by yourself.
Before learning to drive a car, motorcycle or moped in the UK you must apply for a Provisional UK Driving licence. This is administered by the Driving and Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA). You have to be a minimum age of 17 years old to drive a car or van in the UK, and until you have passed all the qualification tests for learning to drive, there are some restrictions i.e.
The process of learning to drive in the UK includes having to pass both the Theory Test and a Practical Driving Test. The Theory Test was introduced in 1996, and has seen many changes since then. From 2002 The Hazard Perception Test was added as a seperate test, but taken in the same test session as the Theory Test.
To book a practical driving test you should previously have taken and passed The Theory Test. You can also watch the following video from the Driving Standards Agency giving more information on the test and how to book it. The Practical Test is based at one of the many UK Driving Test Centres in the UK or one of the new Multi Purpose Test Centres.
I was quite an under-confident driver and felt nervous about the prospect of taking my test. Richard was a great instructor who took time to explain things clearly and methodically, with lots of patience and encouragement. I felt very prepared for my practical test and Richard went through everything very thoroughly.

I've just been learning with Richard and I can not imagine a nicer instructor!
Cool, calm and collected. Richard put me at ease, is incredibly knowledgable, patient and made learning fun.
If you're looking for someone to be supportive, patient and thorough, he is your man!
Thanks Richard!
