Question 3553

If you cannot make a turn or a U-turn on a blocked road, may you back out?

  1. Yes, traveling only the minimum distance necessary, even if you have to enter an intersection.
  2. Yes, traveling a maximum of 15 meters.
  3. Yes, although I may not enter any intersection.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: Yes, traveling only the minimum distance necessary, even if you have to enter an intersection.

If it is impossible to move forward, turn, or make a U-turn, backing up the minimum distance necessary to get out is allowed. In this case, you may back through an intersection if it is essential.
