Zorluk: ZorReversing and Turning

A driver has pulled over on the left side of a residential road with parked vehicles and pedestrians on the footpaths, intending to turn the car around to face the opposite direction. While reversing during this manoeuvre, what observation routine is legally required under the Highway Code?

  1. A
    Rely solely on interior and door mirrors to maintain an accurate distance from both kerbs.
  2. Check all around continuously, look over both shoulders, and give way to all other road users and pedestrians.Cevap
  3. C
    Fixate your gaze exclusively through the rear windscreen until the car comes to a complete standstill.
  4. D
    Direct all visual attention strictly toward the stationary parked cars to prevent accidental panel contact.

Cevap

Check all around continuously, look over both shoulders, and give way to all other road users and pedestrians.
Under Highway Code Rule 202, drivers must look carefully before and throughout any reversing manoeuvre. They must check all around continuously, look over both shoulders to cover blind spots that mirrors cannot reveal, and give way to all oncoming traffic and pedestrians.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the legal and safety requirements for reversing manoeuvres under UK Highway Code Rule 202.
Drivers must check all around before moving and maintain continuous observation throughout the manoeuvre.
Reversing vehicles have large blind spots where pedestrians and vulnerable road users can be concealed.
2
Determine the necessary physical checks to eliminate vehicle blind spots.
Looking over both shoulders directly covers areas not visible in interior or door mirrors.
Mirrors alone provide a limited field of view and do not reveal hazards situated close alongside or directly behind the vehicle.
3
Apply priority rules for turning and reversing in the road.
The manoeuvring driver must give way to approaching traffic, cyclists, and crossing pedestrians.
A vehicle undertaking a manoeuvre has no right of way and must not cause other road users to stop or alter course.
