Question Category: Band 1 road procedure


You're reversing your car into a side road. When will it present the greatest obstruction to passing traffic?


Explanation

"Always check road and traffic conditions in all directions before reversing into a side road. Keep a good lookout throughout the manoeuvre. Remember that as you reverse in, the front of your vehicle will swing out and may create a hazard to passing traffic. Be aware of this danger. If you feel there's a risk, wait for the traffic to clear."
