As a general rule, driving in reverse is prohibited, except in the following exceptional cases and always covering only the minimum essential distance:
1. As a complementary maneuver to stopping, parking, or merging into traffic. In this case, the reverse distance may not exceed 15 meters and may not invade an intersection.
2. When it is not possible to move forward or change direction or course. In this case, there is no limit to the reverse distance, and it is even possible to invade an intersection if necessary.
The reverse maneuver is prohibited on motorways and dual carriageways.
