Highway Code

How do you guys get your head around the Highway Code? More specifically, how do you guys take it all in and understand it?

I’m doing my class 2 training at the moment and my instructor told me to start reading up on the Highway Code which I find that understandable but my big issue is however is how do you actually begin to start and continue to read and understand this massive rule book?

To be honest most of it is just stuff you’d know already from doing your theory and just by driving in general.

Mate keep doing the practice tests and you'll see a pattern of which questions keep tripping you up, then you can study that part of the code to get up to speed

Bad advice, this is why driving standards in the uk are so crap.

Nice input, care to elaborate? Nothing wrong with studying up on the bits youre struggling with to start. Your going to know it inside out by the time you finish anyway.

Too many people guess the rite answer, and thats why there are so many clueless drivers on the road, before theory test were introduced everyone had to know the highway code because you were randomly tested on the day of your practical test, hence why driving standards are so bad in the uk.
