Question 6 of 802

How is the maneuver of moving in reverse signalled?

A using the horn with which the vehicle is equipped;
B with the intermittent yellow lights;
C with the special lights intended for this maneuver.

Explanation

For answer  A 

Intermittent honking, in order to warn the traffic participants behind the vehicle, is not recommended in such situations, some traffic participants might get scared.


For answer  B 

The intermittent yellow lights, more precisely the direction indicator lights, are used for signalling the change of direction of travel, including when setting the vehicle in motion from standstill. These do not constitute the specific signalling of moving in reverse.


For answer  C 

The drivers of motor vehicles are obliged to use the lights for moving in reverse when the vehicle is maneuvered backwards, these being the special lights intended for this maneuver. These are positioned at the rear of the motor vehicle and turn on automatically when engaging the gear lever in the reverse gear. It is recommended, through the traffic regulation, the equipment of motor vehicles also with sound devices for signalling this maneuver.


The correct answer is: B


Recommendations:
Correct use of the lighting and signalling system --> Road Traffic Code - The technical condition of vehicles and the lighting and light signalling system
The maneuver of moving in reverse - Audio-Video Lesson --> Road Traffic Code - The U-turn and moving in reverse
