If on a blocked road you cannot change direction or turn around, are you allowed to exit in reverse?
Reversing
Explanation
When you find yourself on a **closed road** and cannot change direction or turn around, it is permitted to reverse. However, you must do so covering the **minimum necessary distance**. This means you should only reverse as much as needed to get out of the situation, avoiding covering more than strictly necessary.
- Reversing is allowed in specific situations, such as when it is not possible to move forward or change direction, for example, on a road closed due to construction.
- Although generally, you should not reverse more than 15 meters, in this particular case, the priority is to cover only the minimum necessary distance to exit the closed road.
- It is important to drive at a very low speed and ensure there is no danger to other drivers or pedestrians when performing this maneuver.
Therefore, the correct answer is that you can reverse, but only covering the minimum necessary distance.
