Is it permitted to reverse in order to join the flow of traffic?
Reversing
Explanation
**Reversing** is generally prohibited on roads, but there are exceptions where it is allowed. One of these cases is when you need to **merge into traffic** and cannot move forward or change direction. For example, if you find yourself on a street blocked by construction and there is no other option, you can reverse to get out of that situation.
- It is important to remember that when reversing, you must do so with **great caution**. Ensure there is no danger to other drivers or pedestrians. If you detect any risk, such as the presence of another vehicle or pedestrian, you must stop immediately.
- Additionally, when performing this maneuver, you cannot reverse more than **15 meters** or enter an intersection of roads or streets.
Therefore, in specific situations where there is no other option, reversing is allowed to merge into traffic.
