Question 7131

How must a backing-up maneuver be signaled?

  1. With the hazard lights and the backup light.
  2. With the backup light, or failing that, with the arm extended and the palm of the hand facing backward.
  3. With the backup light in all cases.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: With the backup light, or failing that, with the arm extended and the palm of the hand facing backward.

Signal backing up with the backup light or, if the vehicle does not have one or it is not working, with your arm extended horizontally and your palm facing backward. Hazard lights do not signal this maneuver.
