Three-fifths of drivers have not read new Highway Code guidance aimed at providing more protection for vulnerable road users, a new survey suggests.
Some 61% of respondents to an AA poll of 13,300 motorists said they had not read updates made in January. The Highway Code contains advice and rules for people on Britain's roads.
Nine sections were updated in January, with 50 rules added or amended. The new guidance means traffic should give way when pedestrians are crossing or waiting to cross at junctions.
