Faster-road planning

Build confidence reading signs early, selecting a lane, joining safely and leaving a longer following distance as speeds rise.

Why this is included: Mapped nearby examples include A9, B9152, Tromie Bridge (B970).

Signal-controlled junctions

Lower-speed road awareness

Practise meeting traffic safely, allowing for parked vehicles, and looking early for pedestrians, cyclists and side-road hazards.

Why this is included: Mapped lower-speed or local-road examples include Newtonmore Road (A86), High Street (A86), Kingussie Road (A86).

Changing speed environments
