The Drivers Training Highway Code: Road Saferty and Vehicle Rules

This book is an essential reading for all road-users in England Scotland and Wales. Many of these rules are legal requirements and must be adhered to in order to avoid penalty - fines penalty points disqualification or even prison. All road users need to be aware of the new rules. The rules also include a reference to the legislation that creates the offence. The Drivers Training Highway Code reflects the most up-to-date legislation that road-users must adhere to advice on road safety and best practice. The Drivers Training Highway Code is for life not just for learners. For over 75 years the Highway Code has been the official guide to using the roads safely and legally. It has contributed enormously to road safety and reliable road transport.However every day on average around nine people are killed and around 80 are seriously injured in road collisions. So it is as important as ever that all road users including drivers motorcyclists cyclists horse riders and pedestrians should update their knowledge of the Highway Code. The basic advice in a Highway Code of 30 years ago may not be applicable today given increased traffic volumes; larger faster vehicles; more complex road layouts; updated/new road signage and markings; and many other factors. All road users have a responsibility to ensure their knowledge is updated in order to adjust their awareness and actions appropriately for the benefit of others and for their own safety. As it says in the introduction to the Code Cutting the number of deaths and injuries that occur on our roads every day is a responsibility we all share.
