 Highway Code 16th Century Version. - CGNorwich
I asked Deep Seek to reimagine the Highway Code in the style of Shakespeare( well I was bored)

DeepSeek’s response.


Certainly! Below is a rewritten excerpt from the UK Highway Code, reimagined in the style of William Shakespeare. I shall take a section on pedestrian crossings and transform it into iambic pentameter with a touch of Elizabethan flair:

**Shakespearean Rewrite:**

Hark! Attend, ye drivers bold and true,
To those who tread on foot, their path in view.
At zebra’s stripes, where mortals stand in wait,
Yield forth thy steeds, and pause at crossing’s gate.

And lo, where pelican doth flash its hue,
Amber’s glow bids thee to halt anew.
For gentle souls who seek the other side,
Let patience be thy virtue, not thy pride.

Thus, mark these words, as duty doth decree:
Respect the walker’s right, and courteous be.
For in this dance of road and footpath’s claim,
Safety and grace shall crown thy noble name.
