Highway Code: The new rule that means you have to let pedestrians cross even if they're not at a crossing ( similar to U.S.A. )
RaM note -- and more.-- pedestrians / cars / cyclist

In Spain pedestrians have the right to just walk out onto a pedestrian crossing without warning, including in front of a moving car, death rate is quite high.
Don't even get me going on bloody cyclists, do what they want where they want, wrong way up one way streets, jumping red lights, cycling on pedestrian pavements ignoring the blue tracks, nor giving cars a wide berth then bitching when a door opens and they run into it. no Hand signals, no lights. No insurance.
When I was a councillor the local cycle club took us on a trip to point out the short comings of the system in Cheltenham, first thing they did was take us up a one way the wrong way as it would mean a 200m detour the 'right way'.
