Are you up to date with Highway Code changes?

The Highway Code is something all road users, whether you’re a driver, cyclist, horse rider or pedestrian – should know about, it is a set of mandatory rules to ensure safe travel on the roads across the UK.

A series of changes have been made to The Highway Code designed to enhance safety for all road users – particularly those most at risk, these changes were implemented on January 29th. The new rules have set out a hierarchy for road users designed to evoke personal responsibility on the road.
