From Monday 4 June 2018, learners drivers will be allowed on the motorway with an approved driving instructor in a car with dual controls. Any motorways lessons will be voluntary. The rules are changing so that learner drivers get more experience before passing their driving test - like getting training on how to join and leave the motorway, overtake and use lanes correctly.

Be prepared for pedestrians, horse riders, cyclists, slow-moving farm vehicles or mud on the road surface. Make sure you can stop within the distance you can see to be clear. You should also reduce your speed where country roads enter villages. | The Official Highway Code | Facebook
