The new Highway Code – giving way to pedestrians when turning

By 1st February 2022No Comments

Many of the new rules in the Highway Code stem from the Hierarchy of Road Users: a set of principles that establish a priority system designed to improve the safety of the most vulnerable road users.

One of the most significant developments to the Highway Code, and one which could change drivers’ day-to-day driving habits, involves drivers giving priority to pedestrians at junctions. Download our free poster for a handy printable guide, or read the new rules at gov.uk for more detail.
