What’s the purpose of the yellow lines painted across the road?

www.drivingtheorytest.uk - Vehicle handling - What’s the purpose of the yellow lines painted across the road? These lines may be painted on the road on the approach to a roundabout, a village or a particular hazard. The lines are raised and painted yellow, and their purpose is to make you aware of your speed. Reduce your speed in good time so that you avoid having to brake harshly over the last few metres before reaching the junction.

What's the main hazard the driver of the red car (arrowed) should be aware of?

www.drivingtheorytest.uk - Hazard awareness - What's the main hazard the driver of the red car (arrowed) should be aware of? If you can do so safely, give way to buses signalling to move off at bus stops. Try to anticipate the actions of other road users around you. The driver of the red car should be prepared for the bus pulling out. As you approach a bus stop, look to see how many passengers are waiting to board. If the last one has just got on, the bus is likely to move off.
