Did you know what "follow me home" is for?

[securespark]

I wasn't aware of this?

What's the wording in the HC please?

It's not actually illegal - merely an advisory. Rule 201:

The Highway Code - Using the road (159 to 203) - Guidance - GOV.UK

Rules for using the road, including general rules, overtaking, road junctions, roundabouts, pedestrian crossings and reversing.

Almost everyone reverses out of their drive. I've only seen two cars actually facing forwards on a drive on my road - mine and the one opposite. I'm lucky with my drive, it's almost the full width of the house so I can drive in, turn the car around and drive back out again. I don't like reversing out of car park slots let alone reversing into a road, into traffic!

When I built my drive I couldn’t get permission unless I could drive in, turn and drive out again.
I always reverse into parking spaces when I’ve an idea what the traffic’s been like then drive out - just feels safer.

Sorry to contradict…….

Who are you contradicting? What you've posted says basically the same as what I linked from the Gov website.

Don't think you are.

johnnyboy said it was illegal to reverse out of your driveway in the UK, but the HC says it is advisory.
