When parking, how many meters can you drive in reverse?
Reversing
Explanation
To perform **reverse maneuvers**, there are specific rules you must follow to ensure safety on the road.
- **Driving in reverse is prohibited** on any road or path, except in specific situations such as when performing parking maneuvers or when it is not possible to move forward or change direction, for example, when exiting a street blocked by construction.
- In these permitted cases, **the maximum distance you can travel in reverse is 15 meters**. Additionally, you must not enter an intersection of roads or paths while driving in reverse.
- It is important to drive at **very low speed** and ensure there is no danger to other drivers or pedestrians before starting the maneuver. You must be prepared to stop the vehicle if any dangerous situation arises, such as the approach of another vehicle or the presence of pedestrians.
- On **motorways and highways**, reversing is completely prohibited.
By following these rules, the safety of all road users is ensured, and the risks associated with reversing are minimized.
