What's a 'Red Route'?

Revision material from the imported DVSA bank includes source-checked Lanekind learning corrections. These corrections are not newly issued official examination questions, and practice does not reproduce a live test paper.

Answer options

A route with no-stopping controls and specified exceptions

An area where part-time traffic lights operate

An area where drivers have to pay a toll

An area where night-time and weekend weight limits apply

Show the answer

A route with no-stopping controls and specified exceptionsThis was the right answer

Red routes use no-stopping controls, not merely waiting restrictions during peak hours. Double red lines apply at all times; single red lines operate at the signed times. Marked bays have specific parking or loading conditions. Defined passenger pick-up exceptions do not create general permission to park or unload.
