Correct answer

  • AEstar muy atento al circular marcha atrás.Pay close attention when reversing.
Explanation

To reduce the risk of hitting pedestrians, you must keep your speed down in towns and near pedestrians, take extreme care when reversing or pulling out of a parking space, and slow down when approaching a stopped school bus. It is not a good idea to signal to a pedestrian to cross: another vehicle could hit them.
