Take part in our interactive quiz to see how well you know the Highway Code.
The Highway Code is due some major changes this month, but how well do you know the code, and are you aware of the changes?
The new rules, which are due to start on January 29, are designed to make a “hierarchy” of road users.
This will mean those behind the wheel, or handle bars, of vehicles that can create the greatest harm in the event of a collision will bear the greatest responsibility to take care, and reduce the danger to others.
A cyclist and drivers negotiate through blizzard conditions in Bonar Bridge. The changes to the code will mean new advice for both cyclists and motorists.
Other changes will cover who has right of way at junctions in certain situations.
And new guidance will be available for where cyclists should be cycling on a road in certain situations.
In December, the AA found in a survey of 13,500 drivers that only around one third knew about the fresh changes.
