Traffic laws differ from country to country, although some rules might be similar such as rules against running a red light, speed limits, and rules on where to park. In the UK, they have what is called The Highway Code which lists the rules that govern the road for motorists, cyclists, and even pedestrians. There are 307 rules categorized by the type of road user as well as additional guidelines for light signals, traffic signs, road markings, and vehicle markings.

One such rule that almost 90% of respondents said they had broken was flashing their headlights in order to give way to another driver, which The Highway Code prohibits. Nottingham Post lists the other nine UK road laws people unknowingly break.
