Looking Out for Motorcyclists: Junctions, Blind Spots and Filtering – A Refresher for Drivers

Wishlist Share

About Course

Many collisions between cars and motorcycles happen at junctions, when a driver pulls out and says “I just didn’t see them”. This refresher explains, using the Highway Code, why motorcyclists are hard to see, how to check properly at junctions and before changing lanes, what filtering is, and how much room to give – with simple habits that help at any age.

Tutwoo is an independent learning provider. This course is a general refresher based on the Highway Code as published on GOV.UK in November 2026. It does not replace professional driving tuition.
