Drivers and the Law

The law of the road is laid out in the Highway code. It is clearly written and you should be aware of what you can and cannot do when you are driving on the road. You will be tested on it when you come to take your driving test. It not only tells you the rules you must obey on the road, but also contains useful advice on driving.

You must respond to parking, congestion charge and speeding offence communications to you straight away. Don’t wait, don’t think it will go away – it won’t! The problem can only get bigger and more expensive!

The best laid plans can go awry. If you find yourself with a problem the first thing is not to panic! There are sources of information and help available to you.
