BDifficulty 2/5

On a road that is neither an autopista nor an autovía, you cannot proceed forward or change direction or turn around. What reversing distance does the general rule permit?

Correct answer

The minimum distance strictly necessary.

The minimum strictly necessary, safely and slowly, under Articles 80 and 81. The 15-metre limit and ban on entering junctions concern reversing as a supplementary manoeuvre for stopping, parking or joining traffic. This does not authorise motorway reversing or dangerous manoeuvres.
