Attitude
You are driving through a home zone where children are playing and people are using the whole width of the road. What is the right approach?
- Keep to the speed limit and expect people to move
- Drive slowly and be ready to stop for peopleCorrect
- Sound your horn so the road clears ahead of you
- Pass close to pedestrians to get through more quickly
Why?
Rule 206 of The Highway Code says in home zones and quiet lanes people may be using the whole of the road, so you should drive slowly and carefully and be prepared to stop to allow people time to make room for you.
