Do you have to keep both hands on the wheel when reversing?
Put Your Car In Reverse It’s important to keep both hands on the steering wheel as you turn it. Don’t steer one-handed while looking over your shoulder and putting an arm on the back of your seat.
Is reverse parking part of the driving test?
The reverse park is an optional test manoeuvre and can take one of two forms namely the reverse/parallel park along the side of the road behind a parked vehicle or alternatively into a marked bay if the test centre has a car park. The bay park will be undertaken either at the start of the test or at the end of it.
When going in reverse Which way do you turn the wheel to go to the right?
To steer the car in reverse, turn the wheel in the direction you want the rear of the car to go. Turning the wheel to the right steers the back of the car to the right. Turning the wheel to the left steers to the left.
Do you have to signal when reversing out of a parking spot?
You are not required to, but it can be a good idea. It tells those in whose direction you intend to turn what your intention is. That way they will be aware of where you may be moving next and decide whether they need to avoid colliding with you or your courses are collision free and they can continue driving.
Do you have to look out the back window when reversing?

This is true even if you have rear-view camera. Therefore, you should do as little backing as possible in your everyday driving.

:: The requirement to reverse around a corner in the exam is being scrapped, although your driving instructor should still teach you how to do it. :: Likewise, there is no requirement to do a three-point turn in your test but, again, you should know how to do one.
