New learners have to learn it, but a lot of drivers don&#8217;t know about the Highway Code.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;We&#8217;re talking now about a hierarchy of road users, where car drivers are not at the top. It&#8217;s going to take a while for people to understand this. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;There are people who still act as bullies on the road and don&#8217;t have regard for both pedestrians and cyclists.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"what-are-the-new-highway-code-rules\">What are the new Highway Code rules? <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>There is a new hierarchy of road users, with those higher up in the chain expected to take on the most responsibility. Pedestrians, cyclists and horse riders are now categorised as most vulnerable. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cyclists should ride in the middle of the lane in non-fast traffic to improve visibility.  They should also ride two abreast if appropriate, and should drivers leave approximately 5ft between their car and a cyclist when overtaking.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>New laws will also be put in place, such as a \u00a3200 fine and six-points on your license if you are caught using your phone in any capacity \u2013 including changing songs on a playlist.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Drivers can be fined up to \u00a31,000 if they injure someone from not opening a door safely.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"confusion-and-dangerous-situations\">&#8216;Confusion and dangerous situations&#8217; <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/road.cc\/content\/news\/aa-2-3-drivers-unaware-changes-highway-code-rules-288737\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">The AA polled 13,000<\/a> of their members and found at least two thirds did not know about the new changes, with four per cent admitting they don\u2019t intend to look at the Highway Code. The motoring organisation has said the updated rules could lead to \u201cconfusion and dangerous situations\u201d.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Neil Greig, who is director of policy and research at road

Department of Transport.&nbsp; &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A Department for Transport spokesman said: &#8220;The proposed upcoming changes to the Highway Code will improve safety for cyclists, pedestrians and horse riders and were announced to national press.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;The department has established a working group of key organisations to ensure that messages about the changes are as
