This Highway Code applies to England, Scotland and Wales. The Highway Code is essential reading for everyone. The most vulnerable road users are pedestrians, particularly children, older or disabled people, cyclists, motorcyclists and horse riders. It is important that all road users are aware of The Highway Code and are considerate towards each other. This applies to pedestrians as much as to drivers and riders. Many of the rules in The Highway Code are legal requirements, and if you disobey these rules you are committing a criminal offence. You may be fined, given penalty points on your licence or be disqualified from driving.
Too many rules, the signs are counter initiative or flat nonsense (see the “cricket pitch” sign and tell me it doesn’t look like drones dropping off Amazon packages) and roundabouts have to have so many rules becuase THEY DON’T WORK. Just build an intersection. Oh wait, some roundabouts are sometimes intersections and sometimes not. Ffs. Total nightmare.
