Re: The Highway Code

hand on heart... Yes reasd it every few years and follow motoring based websites where new rules/regs are discussed.

the driving standards in this country are abysmal, IMHO we shoudl be retested every 5 years, this would check eyeseight, good driving practice, awareness of new technology ( i.e. NO SAT NAV for the test!) ABS, cruise(adaptive and old style depending on whats fiotted to YOUR car), DSG style boxes ( auto/manual hybrids) ) it should also check motorway awareness and skills.

The crap driving nowadays is the root cause of most accidents and unfortunatley no government will ever have the balls to put regular tests in place.
