Giving way on a hill

I'll back up most on here. People coming up have right of way.
No, they haven't.
First, there is no such thing as right of way.
Second, the Highway Code only says you should give way to them on single-track roads. There is no mention of the situation on normal roads.
However, it does say we should be considerate to other road users at all times, and as others have said this "unofficial rule" is an example of courtesy and consideration.0 -

As I said before - my father taught me the rule of thumb and since he learned to drive in the 1960s on tractors it was probably far more useful then.Wash your Knobs and Knockers... Keep the Postie safe!0
