Something to do to pass the time if you still drive…

26 Mar 2023

 

Dear LPG, 

 

Did you know that about 20% of the drivers in the UK are over 65 years old? As one of them, I am glad to be still able to venture out in this way. But it is also true that a good percentage of us drivers have been doing it for ages. I was about thirty when I passed, and I have been driving ever since, but there was no theory test back then.   

 

Now and then, we hear that the highway code has been updated and a new version is available, but I have to admit that I have not bought a new copy for ages.  

 

The other day I found some interesting items on YouTube, and I thought them worth passing on. If you are a driver, the videos I have asked LPG to share today are designed to test what you know about precisely what our road signs mean. 

 

I had a go, and I think my knowledge appears relatively current, but I did learn a thing or two.   I suggest all LPG readers who drive might benefit from a little go.

SY found a couple of tests and an American one just in case you are planning a holiday…
