Regarding the newly update Highway Code rules for pedestrians crossing at junctions, when turning in to a side road I have noticed an unwillingness of pedestrians to cross when I slow down or stop for them. This is leading to angry drivers behind me and a genuine fear of being rear ended. I realise it is the responsibility of the driver behind to allow enough space to break and avoid a collision but that is no comfort when my car is in the garage being repaired.

I have made myself familiar with the new regulations in the Highway Code, as I am sure a lot of drivers have, but where are non-drivers expected to be notified of the new rules? If they aren't aware of the rules this just won't work. I realise there is a lot of coverage in the media but kids and teenagers aren't reading newspapers or watching the news.
