Today is the 80th birthday of the UK’s Highway Code which was first published on 14 April 1931 in a bid to cut down on the number of accidents taking place on Britain’s roads.

Why 'woonerfs' will change how we drive
Telegraph Motoring research shows that there is strong support at a professional level too with experts now predicting that the woonerf – in a form stricter than anything yet experienced in the UK – will become commonplace.
To see how the concept works, the IAM's chief examiner Peter Rodger and I drove to Almere, an entire new-build village constructed around the woonerf, 20 minutes to the east of Amsterdam.
As we turn off the main road and enter Almere we feel mildly uneasy. Clever use of planting, play areas, chicanes, even the position of the houses, means there isn't a straight road in sight. Every 50 yards, the roadway – which, thanks to the absence of kerbs, blends with the pavement – snakes left or right. Who has right of way? It's hard to tell, especially at junctions where there's no clue as to who has priority. Proceeding with extreme caution is the only way and there's little need for speed signs; our pace automatically falls to a crawl, underlining the designers' dream that children should roam the streets in safety.
