About This Course
The D1 licence allows you to drive a minibus carrying 9 to 16 passengers. If you passed your car driving test (Category B) after 1 January 1997, you will need to obtain this additional licence before driving a minibus for hire or reward. GS Driver Training offers comprehensive D1 minibus courses with DVSA-approved instructors, modern vehicles, and flexible scheduling. Not sure whether you need a D1 or a full Category D (bus/coach) licence? Read our Category D1 Minibus Licence Guide or our Category D Licence (Bus & Coach) Guide for a full comparison.
Optional Pass Protection
Add Pass Protection for £550.00 including VAT before the original course starts. Two additional Module 3a and/or Module 3b attempts in total; each includes up to two hours of training plus the test.
Potential saving up to £350 compared with two £450 Module 3b retests purchased separately. Actual saving depends on the attempts used; no pass or saving is guaranteed.
