Proper Backing Procedures

• If you are backing up for a distance greater than 30 feet, it is recommended that you activate your hazard lights to warn other motorists of your maneuvers.
• While backing, you should look over your right shoulder, partially turning your body, while maintaining proper control of your vehicle.
• When backing in a straight line, you should periodically check all mirrors to be sure that no other vehicles, pedestrians, or obstacles are in your path of travel.
