Can a vehicle merge into traffic from a parking space by reversing?
A)Yes, as long as it does not encroach on a railway crossing.Correct
B)Yes, as long as the distance is not greater than 20 meters.
C)Yes, even if the distance is greater than 20 meters.
Here is the breakdown of the correct answer:
The 15-Meter Rule: In Spain (DGT regulations), you are allowed to reverse to incorporate into traffic or park, but the distance cannot exceed 15 meters. This instantly rules out other options, which incorrectly mention 20 meters.
The Railway/Intersection Ban: Reversing is strictly prohibited if it involves entering an intersection or encroaching on high-risk zones like railway crossings (pasos a nivel), tunnels, or motorways.
In short: Other options are wrong because the legal limit is 15 meters, not 20. This is correct because keeping clear of a railway crossing is an absolute safety requirement for this maneuver.
