Rule 202
Look carefully before you start reversing. You should use all your mirrors check the ‘blind spot’ behind you (the part of the road you cannot see easily in the mirrors) check there are no pedestrians (particularly children), cyclists, other road users or obstructions in the road behind you. Reverse slowly while checking all around looking mainly through the rear window being aware that the front of your vehicle will swing out as you turn. Get someone to guide you if you cannot see clearly. Rule 202: Check all round when reversing
