You want to back out of your driveway, and children are playing nearby. Before you start to back out, you should:

Race your motor to warn the children that you are moving.
Tell the children to stay away from the driveway.
Sound your horn so the children will hear you.
Walk to the back of the car to be sure the way is clear.
Explanation

Backing up is inherently dangerous because it is hard to see behind your vehicle. Do not rely only on mirrors when children are near. Before backing out of your driveway, walk to the back of the car to ensure the way is clear. This allows you to check for any obstacles or children that might be in your path.
