Highway Code changes come into force

A major overhaul of the Highway Code has come into force in a bid to improve road safety for cyclists and pedestrians.

The new guidance includes a hierarchy of road users – with drivers expected to be aware of cyclists, pedestrians and horse riders.

Nine sections of the code have been updated with 50 rules added or amended – including motorists now expected to give way to people crossing or waiting to cross at a junction.
