The Highway Code & Personal Injury Claims - A Caselaw Update

Introduction

Over the past year, the courts have increasingly considered the implications of the Highway Code in the context of the duties applying to local authorities to maintain the public highway.

This webinar will consider the recent developments in caselaw relating to the interaction between the Highway Code and personal injury liability. This appears to be something of a growth area of the law and will allow practitioners in this area to consider how best to use this approach to cases they may encounter.
