|
|
Look over their right shoulder as they back up.
|
|
|
Tap their horn before backing up.
|
|
|
Back slowly.
|
Explanation
Tapping the horn before backing up is not a safe practice. Checking behind the vehicle before getting in is crucial because children or small objects may not be visible from the driver's seat. Looking over your right shoulder allows you to have a direct view through the rear window. Backing slowly is important to maintain control and be aware of any potential hazards.
