Welcome to Lyle’s Driver Training
This Highway Code applies to England, Scotland and Wales. The Highway Code is
essential reading for everyone. The most vulnerable road users are pedestrians,
particularly children, older or disabled people, cyclists, motorcyclists and horse riders. It is
important that all road users are aware of the Code and are considerate towards each
other. This applies to pedestrians as much as to drivers and riders.
Many of the rules in the Code are legal requirements, and if you disobey these rules you
are committing a criminal offence. You may be fined, given penalty points on your
licence or be disqualified from driving. In the most serious cases you may be sent to
prison. Such rules are identified by the use of the words ‘MUST/MUST NOT’. In
addition, the rule includes an abbreviated reference to the legislation which creates the
offence. An explanation of the abbreviations can be found in 'The road user and the law'.
Although failure to comply with the other rules of the Code will not, in itself, cause a
person to be prosecuted, The Highway Code may be used in evidence in any court
proceedings under the Traffic Acts (see 'The road user and the law') to establish liability.
This includes rules which use advisory wording such as ‘should/should not’ or ‘do/do not’.
Knowing and applying the rules contained in The Highway Code could significantly
reduce road casualties. Cutting the number of deaths and injuries that occur on our
roads every day is a responsibility we all share. The Highway Code can help us discharge
that responsibility. Further information on driving/riding techniques can be found in
The Official DSA Guide to Driving - the essential skills’ and ‘The Official DSA Guide to Riding
