New rules coming into effect this month will mean drivers need to be more aware than ever of cyclists on the road.
Previously in the Highway Code, no road position for cyclists was mentioned and they were only given priority if already on the road.
But from January 29, 2022 a new Highway Code is coming into force.
This lays out that cars turning left or right on the road will have to give way to any cyclists that are behind them and planning to go straight on.
Drivers must always leave 1.5 metres of space between their vehicle and a cyclist when overtaking at speeds up to 30mph.
Cyclists must ride in the middle of the road, instead of on the left-hand side.
