Leeds is a large city with heavy traffic and complex road systems.

City centre routes include one-way systems, bus lanes, and frequent traffic lights. Lane markings change quickly and require constant attention.

Outer routes include dual carriageways and large roundabouts where early positioning is essential. Residential areas narrow quickly and are often heavily parked.

Passing in Leeds depends on planning and lane discipline.
