Q

Describe what Trunk Motorways are and whether they are a minor or major road

A

Trunk motorways are major highways with controlled access and high traffic capacity. They are denoted by the letter “M” followed by a number (e.g., M1, M25). Trunk motorways typically connect major cities and regions, providing efficient and fast transportation.

18
Q

Describe what Trunk A Roads are and whether they are a minor or major road

A

Trunk A roads are important major roads that are not motorways. They are designated with the letter “A” followed by a number (e.g., A1, A6). Trunk A roads are often primary routes connecting key locations, such as cities, towns, and major tourist destinations.

19
Q

Describe what B Roads are and whether they are a minor or major road

A

B roads are minor roads that connect smaller towns and villages to the primary road network. They are denoted by the letter “B” followed by a number (e.g., B-road). B roads are generally less busy and have lower traffic capacity compared to trunk roads.

20
Q

Describe what C Roads are and whether they are a minor or major road

A

C roads are minor local roads that primarily serve rural areas and provide access to small communities. They are designated with the letter “C” followed by a number (e.g., C-road). C roads are typically narrower and have lower traffic volumes compared to B roads.

21
Q

Describe what U Roads are and whether they are a minor or major road

A

U roads are the least important roads in the UK’s road classification system. They are often unpaved and are primarily used for agricultural or forestry purposes. U roads are designated with the letter “U” followed by a number (e.g., U-road).

22
Q

You are planning to turn right at a T junction but you see this sign on the pavement next to the giveway line you are approaching to turn right (See Fig.126). What should you do?

A

This sign is used at junctions where you must come to a complete stop—rather than merely giving way by slowly edging forward without coming to a complete stop—before the solid white line. You can only emerge onto the junction when you’ve checked that it’s safe.
