Parking, Reversing & Roadside StopsStandalone practice
You back straight out of a long driveway. Your car has a rear camera. How should you watch your path?
A faces left on a long driveway that joins a street. There is no interior view or driver pose in the question.
Correct answer: Turn your body and look back through the rear window as you back slowly
Why
The guide describes one-hand steering for backing, with the hand at the top of the wheel, so you can turn your body and see behind you. It also tells you to check behind you each time you back up. Small or low objects close behind a car are hard to see in mirrors.
