Question 3966

When backing up to park, is it allowed to enter an intersection?

  1. Yes, as long as you do not travel more than 15 meters.
  2. Yes.
  3. No.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: No.

No. When backing up to park, you may travel no more than 15 meters and must not enter an intersection. Both conditions apply together, so entering an intersection is still prohibited even if you only need 5 meters. In the image, the blue passenger car is backing up alongside the sidewalk with the corner of a cross street behind it, so it must stop backing up before that corner.
