C1Difficulty 1/5

If the driver of a vehicle intends to reverse, how will they signal this?

Correct answer

With the vehicle's light signals, or, failing that, with the arm.

When a driver wishes to reverse, this manoeuvre must be signalled so that other road users are aware of it, using the vehicle's reversing light if it is fitted with one, or otherwise by extending the arm horizontally with the palm of the hand facing backwards.
