Mastering the practical skills of driving is only half the battle; the other half is understanding the rules of the road. The Highway Code is a set of mandatory rules, advice, and information for all road users. Here are the key areas every new driver should focus on:
- **Rules of the Road:** This section covers everything from junctions and roundabouts to lane discipline and signals. Understanding these rules is crucial for your theory and practical tests.
- **Traffic Signs and Markings:** Being able to instantly recognise and react to road signs and markings is a critical skill. Make sure you can identify all common signs.
- **Vehicle Safety:** From checking your tyres to knowing how to use your lights in different conditions, understanding vehicle safety is non-negotiable.
- **Vulnerable Road Users:** The code places a strong emphasis on protecting pedestrians, cyclists, and motorcyclists. Always be aware of your surroundings and give them plenty of space.
