Adjust Driving to Road Conditions

Adapt your driving to the appropriate type and condition of road you are on. In particular

💡Example

You must change the way you drive to match the type of road and its condition, such as surface, width, and layout. For example, you should drive more slowly and carefully on a narrow, winding country lane with potholes than you would on a wide, well‑lit dual carriageway, even if the speed limit is the same.
