Emergency VehiclesDifficulty: 1/5

You are about to reverse out of a driveway onto a road. You hear a siren and see blue lights from an emergency vehicle approaching on the main road. What should you do before reversing?

Explanation

The Highway Code Rule 202 says you must look carefully all around before you start reversing, to make sure you do not put other road users in danger. If an emergency vehicle with blue lights or a siren is approaching, you must wait and let it pass before reversing, then reverse slowly and carefully only when the road is clear and it is safe to do so.
