New Highway Code

[badgerx16]

A revised version of the HC is being introduced, changing the rules and priorities for pedestrians and cyclists at crossings and junctions. However, how many drivers are going to know these changes are being made, and how many are going to acquaint themselves of their new responsibilities ?

I'll go with 'very few' judging by how many still aren't aware of their 'legal' obligation to give a minimum of 1.5m to cyclists when overtaking them!

To be fair that is first that I have heard of it.

The volume of numpties sat in the middle lane of an empty motorway should answer that question.

The amount of people I still see fiddling with their phone is surprising.  I noticed one in my rear view mirror this afternoon, ok we were stopped at the lights.  They turned green, she hadn't noticed and I left her standing....well, as much as you can in a 23 year old, automatic, Toyota Yaris. 😎

New HC rules come into effect from Saturday 29th Jan 2022.

 

You have been warned.
