Publisher's Synopsis
'The Official Highway Code' is seeing one of its biggest overhauls with new rules coming into force. It remains essential reading for any road user. Many rules are a legal requirement and, if you disobey them, you're committing a criminal offence. The 2022 changes include new rules on the hierarchy of road users.
Essential reading for all road users in England, Scotland and Wales, providing all the latest rules of the road and traffic signs. All road users have a responsibility to keep their knowledge up-to-date. This new edition incorporates new rules on:
a) The hierarchy of road users - this means the introduction of new responsibilities towards more vulnerable road users, to keep them safe on the road. These will be known by the 'H' rules
b) Mobile Phones - tighter restrictions on the use of mobile phones whilst driving
c) Junctions - you should give way to pedestrians crossing or waiting to cross a road that you're turning into
d) Parking Laws - new rules around parking on pavements.
The Official Highway Code remains one of the source materials for all theory tests.
