Traditions on the British roads (script)

The first thing you notice when you come to Britain is that they drive on the left-hand side of the road. Taking the left-hand side on the road is a custom or habit that goes back centuries when people used to carry swords, most often in their right hand, to protect themselves. The custom was encouraged by the General Highways Act of the British Government (1773), which advised horse riders, coachmen and people taking their vegetables to market to drive on the left. The rule was made a law by the Highway Act of 1835.

So, the second thing you notice is that the steering wheel is on the right. However, the pedals are in the same position as in left-handed cars, with the accelerator– gas pedal – on the right.

The gears and almost always the handbrake are both operated with the left hand. Less and less cars on the roads are with a manual gearbox (с ручной коробкой передач). Most modern cars are with an automatic gearbox.

Petrol and diesel are among the most expensive in the world.

The wearing of front seat belts was made mandatory (обязательное) for motorists in 1983.

The minimum age for driving a car in the UK is 17, and 16 for riding a moped or motorbike with a maximum engine capacity (мощность двигателя) of 50 cc (cubic centimeters).

There are some 225,000 miles (362,000 km) of roads in Britain. Many of the roads are built on the old roads laid down by the Romans centuries ago.

Roads in Britain range from wide modern motorways to narrow country lanes usually bordered by hedges, stone walls, grassy banks of rivers or ditches (рвы). Cities and towns tend to have compact streets because they go back to the times well before cars appeared, and were certainly not planned for large lorries.

The National Speed limits

On motorways and dual carriageways drivers can drive cars at a speed of 70 mph (112 km/h)

Single carriageway roads: 60 mph (96 km/h)

Built up areas, e.g. towns and villages: 30 mph (48 km/h)

Residential areas: 20 mph (35 km/h)

All speed limits and distances are given on signs in miles or miles per hour. One mile is about 1.6 km. Round signs indicate (указывают) speed limits with the number circled by a red band (полоса). When the speed limit is no longer applied, then there is a black line crossing through the number.
