Question 6423

May you enter an intersection while backing up?

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

Correct answer: No, as a general rule.

As a general rule, no. When backing up to stop, park, or enter traffic, you must not enter an intersection, even if you travel less than 15 meters. The exception is a dead-end street where you cannot continue forward, turn, or make a U-turn. There, back up only as far as necessary, even if you have to cross an intersection.
