Hazard awareness

In hazard awareness, what best describes a 'developing hazard'?

  • Something ahead that may make you change your speed or direction
    Correct
  • A hazard you have already safely passed
  • A parked car with no one anywhere near it
  • A road sign that simply gives you information

Why?

Rule 146 of The Highway Code says be prepared for unexpected or difficult situations and adjust your speed as a precaution. A developing hazard is one that is changing and may force you to act; a hazard you have passed no longer needs a response.
