Highway Code

The Highway Code is a set of guidelines and rules designed to ensure the safety of all road users, including drivers, pedestrians, cyclists, and motorcyclists. It covers how to navigate roads responsibly, such as obeying traffic signals, speed limits, and road signs, as well as safe practices like signaling intentions and giving way. The Code promotes awareness, consideration, and predictability to reduce accidents and ensure smooth traffic flow. While not a legal document itself, following the Highway Code is essential, as it influences traffic law and helps prevent collisions and injuries on the road.
