Highway Code short survey. In last 48 hours in 2 presentations only 5 and 6% of 131 (mixed aged) attendees had looked at the Code in recent years. National surveys have similar findings. We will now reinstate communication around the 2022 Code rule changes in future activities. @GlosLiveOnline @BBCGlos @bbcpointswest @itvwestcountry @GlosRoads @Glos_Police @Glos_OPCC @Glosfire @GlosRoadSafety @GlosPolSpecials
