Driving Advice UNITED KINGDOM

In the UK cars travel on the left-hand side of the road and overtake on the right - but there's no automatic priority for cars coming from the left. On roundabouts, always give priority to cars coming from the right. At junctions, a broken line indicates that you should wait and give way to traffic on the other road. The Highway Code (from AA and RAC motoring organisations and most bookshops) offers detailed guidance. It is compulsory for drivers and passengers to wear fitted seat belts and for motorcycle drivers and passengers to wear helmets.

Child Seats:

The rules - since September 2006
-All children under three years old must use an appropriate child restraint when travelling in any car or goods vehicle (except in the rear of a taxi if a child seat is not available).
-Children aged three or more years old and up to 135cm (approx 4ft 5in) in height must use an appropriate child restraint when travelling in cars or goods vehicles fitted with seat belts.
(Few exceptions are permitted.)
-Rear-facing baby seats must not be used in seats with an active frontal air-bag.
-From May 2009, where seat belts are provided, the number of people carried in the rear of vehicles may not exceed the number of seats available fitted with seat belts or child restraints.
-From May 2008, only child restraints complying with UN ECE Reg 44.03 or a later standard may be used.
Drivers remain responsible for seat belt wearing and use of the relevant child seat or booster by children under 14 years of age.

Penalties for offenders remain at a £30 fixed penalty notice or a maximum fine of £500 if a case goes to court.

Speed Limits:

Speed limits in the UK are measured in MPH (Miles per Hour)

Motorways 70mph
Urban stretches 60mph
Dual carriageways 70mph
Outside built-up areas 60mph
Built-up areas 30/40mph

In the UK, speed cameras are in use on all busy traffic routes. Ensure you keep to limits as you will be liable for anything from a fine or points on your licence to a complete ban if you are caught speeding.

Ensure you are up to date by double checking the UK speed limits: http://www.police999.com/traffic/speedlim.html

Unless street signs show a lower limit, ordinary single carriageway speed limits are 96 km/h (60 mph); the dual carriageways/motorway limit is 112 km/h (70 mph). The normal speed limit in towns and built up areas in 48 km/h (30 mph); although some approaches and freeways in and around populated areas have clearly marked speed limits of 64 km/h (40 mph).Familiarise yourself with UK road signs courtesy of the UK Highway Code website:

http://www.highwaycode.gov.uk

Fuel:

Fuel and service stations are at frequent intervals along main roads and in towns and villages. Filling stations on motorways may be as much as 50 miles apart but are open 24 hours, as are some filling stations in populated areas.

Tolls:

The M6 motorway has a toll, as do a handful of major bridges and tunnels. Get up-to-date M6 toll information at its website: http://www.m6toll.co.uk

There are also tolls on larger bridges in the UK. In the south the most notable is the Dartford Tunnel and Queen Elizabeth Bridge which cross the Thames.

A toll (also called 'congestion charge') is payable when driving or parking in central London on weekdays (Monday to Friday excluding public holidays) between 0700 and 1800 hours. The entrances to the zone are indicated by the letter C in white on a red background. At present the standard charge for most vehicles is £8.00 if purchased on or before the date of travel, however from October 2008 a new pricing structure will be introduced, for full details click on the following link: http://www.tfl.gov.uk/roadusers/congestioncharging/7394.aspx

Parking:

Parking in towns and cities is normally at metered places or paying car parks. Avoid parking on double yellow lines at any time. Many towns and cities offer 'park and ride' schemes with frequent buses to get you to and from the shopping and sights.
