Drivers ‘forget rules’

MILLIONS of motorists do not understand some fundamental rules of the road, a new survey suggests.

A third (34%) believe the speed limit for cars on a dual carriageway is 60mph, when it is actually 70mph. The poll of 2,000 UK drivers for insurance provider 1st Central also found 14% believe they can use their horn at any time of day in a built up area. A curfew is in place between 11.30pm and 7am.
