Alertness
You are in slow-moving queuing traffic and want to change lane. Which road user might be filtering between the lanes?
- A motorcyclistCorrect
- A bus in the lane beside you
- A parked delivery van
- A pedestrian on the pavement
Why?
Motorcyclists often filter between slow or stationary lines of traffic and are easy to miss because they are narrow. Rule 211 of The Highway Code warns that it is often difficult to see motorcyclists, especially when they are filtering through traffic, so check carefully before you change lane.
