Motorway DrivingDifficulty: 2/5

You are driving on a dual carriageway with a 60 mph speed limit. You see a small powered vehicle being used by a disabled person in the left-hand lane. What should you expect regarding its warning lights?

Explanation

According to Highway Code Rule 220, powered vehicles used by disabled people, which travel at a maximum of 8 mph, MUST have a flashing amber beacon when used on a dual carriageway where the speed limit exceeds 50 mph. This applies whether or not the road is a motorway. On other roads, including those with lower speed limits, they may not display any beacon, so drivers must look carefully and be prepared to slow down.
